<h3>
Answer: shaded region has area 107 square feet</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
A = area of larger rectangle
A = length*width = 9*15 = 135 square feet
B = area of smaller rectangle
B = length*width = 7*4 = 28 square feet
C = area of shaded region
C = difference in areas of A and B
C = A - B = 135 - 28 = 107 square feet
<span>Simplifying
7p + 2 = 5p + 8
Reorder the terms:
2 + 7p = 5p + 8
Reorder the terms:
2 + 7p = 8 + 5p
Solving
2 + 7p = 8 + 5p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5p' to each side of the equation.
2 + 7p + -5p = 8 + 5p + -5p</span>
