let width of total park be x m
\n" ); document.write( "length = x+5 m
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Area = x(x+5)= x^2+5x
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "uniform width is 2.5 m
\n" ); document.write( "lawn width = x-5 m
\n" ); document.write( "lawn length = x+5-5
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "area = x(x-5)= x^2-5x
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+5x-x^2+5x =330
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 330 m
\n" ); document.write( "/10 x = 33 width of lawn
\n" ); document.write( "length = 33-5 = 28 m
\n" ); document.write( "Area of lawn = 28*33= 924 m^2
