Craig has a 6 ft by 6 ft square garden in his backyard. He wants to transform the garden into a rectangular shape and reduce the area to 32 square feet. He will do this using his current fencing by reducing the length by x feet and adding it to the width.

Answer :

X = 2
So 6 + 2 = 8
6 - 2 = 4
8 x 4 = 32

(6-x)(6+x) = 32
36 - x^2 = 32
-36. -36
-x^2 = -4
X = 2
