Write an expression in factored form that represents the area of the flower border.

Answer to Problem 46IP
Factored form of the flower bed is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The diagram represents a flower border that is 3 feet wide surrounding a rectangular sitting area. Write an expression in factored form that represents the area of the flower border.
Concept Used:
Area of Flower bed = Area of big Rectangle (with flower bed / orange) − Area of small Triangle (green)
Length of big rectangle with flower bed (orange) =
Length and height of Small Rectangle (without flower bed) =
To find the factor of the expression:
Step 1: find the GCF of the expression and take out the GCF from each term of the expression and write in factor form.
Example: The expression
Calculation:
Area of Flower bed = Area of big Rectangle (with flower bed / orange) − Area of small Triangle (green)
Length of big rectangle (orange) =
Area of big rectangle with flower bed =
Length and height of Small Rectangle =
Area of small rectangle without flower bed =
Area of Flower bed = Area of big Rectangle (with flower bed / orange) − Area of small Triangle (green)
Area of Flower bed =
Area of Flower bed =
Now find the factor of
Thus, factored form of the flower bed is
