Answer:
20 x 20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
First I just drew out two squares, one was the first un-cut square and the second is the cut one. Since we know that the area of the smaller square is 144, and Area is just side^2 , we know that all the sides of the smaller square are 12. Now, all we have to do is add 8 to 12 to get the original lawn. The original lawn was a 20 x 20 ft lawn.

Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4 from both sides which you add to the zero. Then, combine like terms, 5x - 1x which is 4x. Divide 4 from both sides and it equals 1.
Answer:
y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram, opposite lengths are equal.
So it means that the length (5y - 20) is equal to (2y + 25).
Now that there is only one variable in the equation, we can solve for the variable.
5y - 20 = 2y + 25
5y - 2y = 25 + 20
3y = 35
y = 15
