A gardener wants to create a rectangular garden with length of 3x - 3y ft. and width of x - 5y ft. What is an algebraic expression for the area of the garden?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "A = (3x - 3y)*(x - 5y)
\n" ); document.write( "FOIL
\n" ); document.write( "A = 3x^2 - 15xy - 3xy + 15y^2
\n" ); document.write( "Add like terms
\n" ); document.write( "A = 3x^2 - 18xy + 15y^2
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out 3
\n" ); document.write( "A = 3(x^2 - 6xy + 5y^2)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
