I am building a square pond, I want to put a 2-foot wide brick border around the outside. If the total area of the border and the pond is 196 square feet, find the dimensions of the ond.
\n" ); document.write( "SIDE^2 OF POND WITH BORDER =196
\n" ); document.write( "SIDE==SQRT(196)=14
\n" ); document.write( "THE BORDER IS 2' ALL AROUND SO POND WILL BE 2' LESS ON ONE END OF A SIDE AND ANOTHER 2' LESS ON THE OTHER END OF THE SAME SIDE
\n" ); document.write( "SO SIDE OF POND IS 14-2-2=10'
\n" ); document.write( "POND IS 10' SQUARE
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
