Question

PLEASE HELPPPP

Find the area of the shaded region of the square, with side length 2x - 3, if each of
the ovals has an area of x – 5 square inches.

Answer 1

4x^2 - 14x + 19

Explanation:

A = LW

A = (2x-3) (2x-3)

4x^2 - 6x - 6x + 9

Combine like terms:

4x^2 - 12x + 9

-2(x - 5) (for both ovals)

(4x^2 - 12x + 9) -2(x - 5)

4x^2 - 12x + 9 - 2x + 10

Group then combine like terms:

4x^2 - 12x - 2x + 10 + 9

4x^2 - 14x + 19

Sorry for being 10 days late but here is the answer for anybody that needs this! :D
