According to the information given in the exercise, the following expression represents the area of the rectangular garden:

6\mleft(6.5x+2.5\mright)

And the following expression represents the combined area of the walkway around the rectangular garden and the area of the garden:

6.5\mleft(8x+6\mright)

You can identify that the word "combined" indicates that that expression was obtained by adding both areas.

Knowing the above, you can set up the following equation:

6(6.5x+2.5)+A=6.5(8x+6)

Where "A" is the area of the walkway around the rectangular garden.

Solving for "A", you get the following expression:

\begin{gathered} A=6.5(8x+6)-6(6.5x+2.5) \\ A=52x+39-39x-15 \\ A=13x+24 \end{gathered}

The answer is:

13x+24

Fofino [41]

Let the number of pages read on day 1 be = x

Then on day 2 he read twice the pages from day one, it is = 2x

On 3rd day he read 6 pages less than 1st day, it is = x-6

Total pages are = 458

The equation becomes: x+2x+x-6=458

4x-6=458

4x=464

x=116

So on the third day, Aiden read x-6=116-6=110 pages.
