Answer:
[tex]Area = x^2 +11x + 24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
From the attachment, we have:
[tex]Length = x + 8[/tex]
[tex]Width = x + 3[/tex]
Required
Determine the area
Area is calculated as:
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
[tex]Area = (x+8)*(x+3)[/tex]
Open brackets
[tex]Area = x(x+3)+8(x+3)[/tex]
[tex]Area = x^2 +3x + 8x + 24[/tex]
[tex]Area = x^2 +11x + 24[/tex]
