We have been given that Mark had $436.
Further, we are given that Chris has $86 lesser than what mark had.
Let us assume that Chris has $x. Therefore, we can set up an equation:
(Amount Chris had) + $86 = (Amount Mark had)
Upon subtracting 86 from both the sides, we get:
Therefore, the required expression that represent the amount of money that Chris had is .

Answer:
a square 175 m on a side
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the sides of the rectangle. Then the perimeter is ...
P = 2(x + y) = 700
x + y = 350 . . . . . . . divide by 2
y = 350 -x . . . . . . . . subtract x
The area of the fenced field is ...
A = xy
A = x(350 -x)
This is a quadratic function that has zeros at x = 0 and x = 350. The axis of symmetry is x = (0 +350)/2 = 175. The vertex (maximum area) is on the axis of symmetry, so corresponds to x = 175. The y-value there is ...
y = 350 -x = 350 -175 = 175
That is, the maximum area will be obtained when the fenced area is a square. Each side of the square is 175 m, which is 1/4 of the total length of the fence.
The dimensions of the space are 175 m by 175 m.
