The following is a floor plan for a dog run that is in jorge’s backyard. use the clues below (picture) to determine the dimensions of each side of the dog run. — i tried doing this, but i got confused on the clues

Okay! I think I figured it out.

So you know that A + B + C + D + E + F = 36 ft.

You also know that A + C = E and that B + D = F.

Now they give you the clue that E is 8 ft.

They also tell you that A, B, C, and D are consecutive numbers. Meaning that they are right next to each other so like 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Based on this, I got that A = 3 ft., B = 4 ft., C = 5 ft., and D = 6 ft. Then I made sure that 3 ft. + 5 ft. = 8ft. True. Then I concluded that F must be equal to 10 ft.

I added (A) 3 ft. + (B) 4 ft. + (C) 5 ft. + (D) 6 ft. + (E) 8 ft. + (F) 10 ft. = 36 ft.

table 3 represents a direct variation function. : )
