If we take the equation and multiply out the left side, we get....

+ 2xk +

=

+ x +

The x^2 and k^2 cancel out on both sides leaving us with this...
2kx = x
If we divide both sides by 2x to isolate k,
k ends up = 1/2
The area of the square will be 196cm².
<h3>How to calculate the area?</h3>
It should be noted that the perimeter of a square is the addition of all its sides. Therefore, the length of the side will be:
= 56/4
= 14
Therefore, the area of the figure will be:
= 14²
= 14 × 14
= 196cm²

Answer: (use distributive property then add the like terms)
3(2p + 4) - (3p - 4) = 43
6p + 12 - 3p - 4 = 43
3p - 8 = 43
