Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, you want to subtract Ben's growth from Ella's.
This expression would be 
-
.
To work these out, they must have the same denominator (which should be the lowest common multiple or LCM).
In this case, the LCM is 12, so you want to multiply each side so the denominator is 12. This means the first fraction should be multiplied by 
and the second by 
.
This makes the expression 
-
, which equals .

Q = p(r + s)
Use the distributive property
Q = pr + ps
Q = p x r + p x s
Q = p x p + r x s
Q = p^2 + rs
Subtract rs from both sides
Q - rs = p^2
Square root both sides
sqrt Q - rs = p

Difference of two squares is of the form (a + b)(a - b) or vice-versa. Here, a = -5x and b = 3.
(-5x - 3)(-5x + 3)
Answer: 3
First, find the area of both beds!
For Heidi: 5 x 3 = 15
For Andrew: 5 x (3 x 2) = 30 ft
Added together, the beds have an area of 45 feet. To place soil with a depth of 2 feet, simply multiply by 2. You can think of this as finding the volume of the beds, which is length x width x height, or area x height. The answer is 90 cubic feet!
