To find m we add the dimensions and equalise it to the answer first:
5m + 8 + 5m + 8 + 3m + 2 + 3m + 2 = 74 + 7m
Now we simplify
16m + 20 = 74 + 7m
Minus 20 from both sides
16m = 54 + 7m
Minus 7m from both sides
9m = 54
Divide by 9 from both sides
M=6
Plz give me brainliest answer and hope it helps!

Answer: 20 feet by 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that $x$ is the original measure of one side. Since it is a square, all its sides are equal.

2. Therefore, to solve the problem you only need to solve for $x$ , as you can see below:

- You have that:

$(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}$

- Then, you obtain the following quadratic equation:

$(x-8)^{2} =144\\x^{2}-2(x)(8)+8^{2}=144\\x^{2}-16x-80=0$

- Apply the Quadratic formula to solve it:

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\a=1\\b=-16\\c=-80$

- Then, you obtain:

$x_1=20\\x_2=-4$

3. The dimensions cannot be negative, therefore, the answer is: 20 feet by 20 feet.
