Answer:

OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

3 and 'a' are multiplied and 5 is subtracted from the result.

OPTION B says 5 less than 3 times a number would fit perfectly.

Other options talk about adding or taking ratios and clearly do not fit the case.

Hence, the right answer is Option B.

Jillian is trying to save water, so she reduces the size of her square grass lawn by 8 feet on each side the area of the smaller

horsena [70]

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.
