L gardens

Find how long the area with gardens is if the square plots have a circumference of 8 m and the rectangular plot has a circumference of 14 m. The gardens are adjacent so that the shorter side of the rectangular plot is adjacent to the first square garden, and the second square garden is adjacent on one side to the first square garden to L.

Correct answer:

x =  22 m

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} s=8\text{m} \\ o=14\text{m} \\ a=s/4=8/4=2\text{m} \\ x=o+2\cdot s-4\cdot a=14+2\cdot 8-4\cdot 2=22\text{m} \end{gathered}$$
