The answer to your question is Area = (x + 25)(x + 15) - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Patio                                     bench

base = x + 25                       base = 10

height = x + 15                      height = 3

Process

1.- Calculate the area of the patio considering the bench

Area 1 = (x + 25)(x + 15)

2.- Calcula the area of the bench

Area 2 = 10 x 3 = 30

3.- Calculate the area of the patio

Area = Area 1 - Area 2

Area = (x + 25)(x + 15) - 30
