A home improvement show is designing a backyard for a family. They want to install a pool in the center of the backyard. It will have two equal square sections of garden on both sides of it. The entire length of the backyard is 60 feet. Let p represent the width of each square section of garden.

Draw a picture to represent this scenario, labeling the sides of the pool.
