(x - 8)² = 144

Take square root of both sides

(x - 8) = √144

x - 8 = 12

x = 12 + 8

x = 20

Original lawn is = 20 feet * 20 feet square

Please help, I’ve been stuck on this question for about a hour now.
Hoochie [10]
6x + 5x + (x + 16) + (3x - 1) = 360
11x + x + 16 + 3x - 1
15x + 15 = 360
15x = 345
x = 23


6(23) = 138
((23) + 16) = 39
(3(23) - 1) =68
5(23) = 115

138 + 39 + 68 + 115 = 360
