Answer:
A = 2x²; 128 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of original garden = x²
Let A = area of new garden. Then
A = 2x²
If x = 8 ft,
A = 2 × 8² = 2 × 64 = 128 ft²
The area of the new garden is 128 ft²
.

Rewrite -1 as a fraction

Cross multiply

Distribute the -1

Add both sides by ax

Subtract both sides by 3

Divide both sides by 3a

Simplify

That's the value of x respect to a. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer:
8(4+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there! We know that 32+16=48 so all we have to do is find a expression that equals 48. 8(4+2)=48. 8(24+8)=256. 7(4+2)=42. 7(24+8)=224. Therefore, the expression that is equivalent to 32+16 is 8(4+2).
