Answer 2

Do you know how to find the area of a square?

The area of the shaded region can be found by first finding

the area of the larger square

and then you subtract the area of the smaller square

Answer 3

so basically

area of larger square - area of smaller square

what is the area of the larger square?

area = side * side

the side is (x+8)

what is the area?

Answer 4

x^2+16x+64

Answer 5

Good!

Now what about the smaller square that has side 7

Answer 6

so x^2+16x+57

Answer 7

no no

you have to first find the area of the smaller square with side 7

area = 7 * 7

and then we have to subtract that from the area of the larger square

Answer 8

yeah the area of the smaller square is 49 and I subtracted that and got x^2+16x+57

Answer 9

how did you subtract it to get that?

you have

x^2 + 16x + 64 - 49

what is 64 - 49 = ?

Answer 10

oh 18
so its x^2+16x+18

Answer 11

I accidentally subtracted 7 my bad

Answer 12

uhhh no

64 - 49 = 15

Answer 13

Oh my gosh I'm stupid I don't know how that happened sorry

Answer 17

Area is always square units

Answer 18

ok thanks

Answer 19

yw~

Answer 20

yes, remember

the side length is `units`
the area is always going to be `square units`
volume will always be `cubic units`
