Two expressions for the perimeter of a square are:
4a
- a represents one side of the square
a + a + a + a
- a representa one side of the square
the first expression does not include any addition. But the two expressions are actually equivalent.
If you put brackets around (2+1), your method of working is:
1) 15-4*(2+1)=3
2) 15-4*3=3
3) 15-12=3
You don't need any more brackets, as the BIDMAS (brackets, Indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) rule does the rest of the job for you.
The answer is therefore: 15-4*(2+1)=3

Answer:
a*(20-a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the length of the garden is a the width is b and the area is s.
b = 40/2 - a = 20-a
s =a*(20-a)=-a^2+20a=-(a-10)^2+100
then,
when a=10, max(-(a-10)^2) =0, max(s)=100
