with wat?

OpenStudy (snowcrystal):

A family is building a new house on a rectangle lot of land. The lot measures 7x by 11x, and the house will be 2x by 3x. How much land will be left for their yard after the house is built?

OpenStudy (snowcrystal):

A.) 77x^2 B.) 83x^2 C.) 40x^2 D.) 71x^2

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Well the total area of the land is 7x times 11x = 77x^2 The house's area will be 2x times 3x = 6x^2 How much will be left would be the difference between the two.. 77x^2 - 6x^2

OpenStudy (snowcrystal):

ummmm that would be 71x^2

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

That would be correct!

OpenStudy (snowcrystal):
