Question

A rectangular building is surrounded by a rectangular parking lot. The width of the building is w, and the length is twice the width. The
width of the parking lot is 8 units longer than twice the width of the building. The length of the parking lot is 3 units longer than the length of the
building. What is the area of the parking lot in terms of w? Write the expression in standard form.

Answer 1

Answer:

Parking area = (2W + 8) (2W + 3) = 4W² + 22W + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

BW = W

BL = 2W

PW = 2W + 8

PL = BL + 3 = 2W + 3

Parking area = (2W + 8) (2W + 3) = 4W² + 22W + 24
