A property of rectangles is that opposite sides are congruent. In this case, since QT and RS are opposite sides, they are equal to each other. With this knowledge, you can form the equation 
to solve for x.
Firstly, subtract both sides by 8: 
Next, divide both sides by 4 and your answer will be 
, or the third option.
The partial product of 4.6×3.5 is 16.1
So the original lawn has an area
24 × 32 = 768 the new lawn will have area 425
this means the area of the sidewalk will be 768-425=343
now the sidewalk is a certain width of we draw it out and label it x we see the lawn has an area of
use the quadratic formula to solve. then you will know how wide the sidewalk is. I will attach picture
Answer:
y=4x-3
then add 3 to each side to get: y+3=4x.
Next, just divide both sides by 4 to get x = (y+3)\div4.
