Answer 1

Hi there! The answer is 56 + 8x square feet

The length of a rectangle is 8 feet.
The width of that rectangle is 7 + x feet.

We can find the area of the rectangle by using the formula A = L x W
(Area = Length x Width)

Filling in this formula gives us:
A = 8 (7 + x) = 56 + 8x square feet
