Question

You are adding an addition to your patio. The area ( in square feet) of the addition can be represented by k² - 3k - 10.

a) The area of the patio before the addition was 50 square feet. Find it.
b) Find the area of the addition and the area of the entire patio after the addition.

Answer 1

Answer:We suppose;

A= area before addition

B= Area of addition

a) As area of pation before addition is 50 - it means A= 50

b) Area of addition and the area of entire pation after addition = A+B

= 50 +

=

Answer 2

`k^(2)-3k+40`

Explanation:

We suppose;

A= area before addition

B= Area of addition
`k^(2)-3k-10`

a) As area of pation before addition is 50 - it means A= 50

b) Area of addition and the area of entire pation after addition = A+B

= 50 +
`k^(2)-3k-10`

=
`k^(2)-3k+40`
