Question 233310: Can you assist me in solving this word problem?
A 4-ft by 7-ft picnic table is placed on an outdoor patio measuring x-ft by (x + 3)ft. find a polynomial for the remaining open space on the patio (in square inches). Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A 4-ft by 7-ft picnic table is placed on an outdoor patio measuring x-ft by (x + 3)ft. find a polynomial for the remaining open space on the patio (in square inches).
-------------
The patio is x*(x+3) sq ft
= x^2 + 3x
------------
The table is 28 sq ft
That leaves x^2 + 3x - 28 open space in sq ft
= 144x^2 + 432x - 4032 sq inches
