Answer 1

`Area = 25*(10 + w) + 13.5(10 + w)`

Explanation:

Given

The attachment

Required

Express the area as a sum of stores and parking lots

First, calculate the area of the stores

`Store\ A = 25\ by\ 10`

`Store\ B = 25\ by\ w`

`Stores\ A\ and\ B = 25\ by\ 10 + w`

The area is then calculated as:

`A_1 = 25 * (10 + w)`

Next, calculate the area of the parking lots

From the attachment, we have the following

`Parking\ lot\ A = 13.5\ by\ 10`

`Parking\ lot\ B = 13.5\ by\ w`

`Parking\ lots\ A\ and\ B = 13.5\ by\ 10 + w`

The area is then calculated as:

`A_2 = 13.5 * (10 + w)`

The area of the shopping centre is then calculated as:

`Area = A_1 + A_2`

`Area = 25*(10 + w) + 13.5(10 + w)`
