So to solve this question, your goal is to find out how the way it is solved is not correct.
Your answer would be: On the third line, the student adds the 8 to both sides instead of subtracting. The way the initial equation is given is
y-(-8)=-6(x-2). After distributing the six, the student should make the 8 positive because subtracting a negative makes a positive. After solving, the equation should look like: y(+8)=-6x+12, so you would subtract the 8 from both sides instead of adding it, and solve from there.

Answer: 162 sq. yds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A square that is 5yd on a side is placed inside a rectangle that has a width of 11yd and a length of 17 yd.
Then , Area of rectangle = length x width
= 11 yd x 17 yd = 187 sq. yds.
Area of square = (side)²
= (5 yd)² = 25 sq. yds.
Now , the area of the region inside the rectangle that surrounds the square will be Area of rectangle - Area of square
= 187 sq. yds.- 25 sq. yds.
=162 sq. yds.
Hence, the area of the region inside the rectangle that surrounds the square is 162 sq. yds. .
