First find the bigger rectangles area by doing 10 x 9 the area of that section is 90. The other part subtract 9 from 18 to get 9. Multiply 9 and 5 to get 45. add 45 and 90 to get the final answer 135
a) Shawn's error was that he Multiplied 15 by 2x only. He didn't Multiply 15 by 7
b) The difference, in square feet, between the actual area of Shawn’s garden and the area found using his expression is given as
98 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The area in, square feet, of Shawn’s garden is found be calculating 15(2x + 7). Shawn incorrectly says the area can also be found using the expression 30x + 7.
The correct area =
15(2x + 7).
= 30x + 105 square feet
The error in Shawn’s expression is
= 15(2x + 7)
= 30x + 7 square feet
Shawn's error was that he Multiplied 15 by 2x only. He didn't Multiply 15 by 7
The difference, in square feet, between the actual area of Shawn’s garden and the area found using his expression is given as
