Bailey writes the expression g2 + 14g + 40 to represent the area of a planned school garden in square feet. If g = 5, what are the dimensions of the school garden?

Answer 1

$5^{2} + 14(5) + 40$
$25 +70 + 40$
135

$\frac{135}{15} =9$

15 feet by 9 feet

Answer 2

(5x2)=10 (14x5)=70 40=40 10+70+40=120
