The <em>approximate increase</em> in Area of the parking lot is about 133%

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

<u>Initial Area of parking lot</u> :

  • 75 feets × 150 feets = 11250 ft²

<u>New Area of parking lot</u> :

Width = 75 + 100 = 175 feets

Length = 150 feets

Area = 175 × 150 = 26250 ft²

<u>Percentage increase in </u><u>Area</u><u> </u><u>of lot</u> :

((16250 - 11250) / initial Area) × 100%

(15000 / 11250) × 100% = 133.33%

Therefore, the <em>approximate increase</em> on area of lot is 133%

-12 = 14x^2+14x-60x
-12= 14x^2-46x
Add 12
0= 14x^2-46x-14
