A sign is being painted that includes 3 small squares with a side length of s and 2 large ones with a side length of S. Write an expression to find the total area of the sign that needs to be painted.(1 point)
2S^2 - 3s^2
3S^2 - 2s^2
3S^2 + 2s^2
2S^2 + 3s^2
The total area of the sign that needs to be painted would be 2(2S^2) + 3(s^2), as we have two large squares with a side length of S and three small squares with a side length of s.
So, the expression to find the total area of the sign that needs to be painted is:
2S^2 + 3s^2
you sure
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's rearrange the expression based on the squares to be painted:
For the small squares with a side length of s, the total painted area would be 3s^2 since there are three small squares.
For the large squares with a side length of S, the total painted area would be 2S^2 since there are two large squares.
Therefore, the expression to find the total area of the sign to be painted would be:
3s^2 + 2S^2.
thats not an answer
My apologies for the oversight. Let's correct the answer:
The expression to find the total area of the sign to be painted should be:
3 * s^2 + 2 * S^2
Therefore, the correct expression to find the total area of the sign that needs to be painted is:
3s^2 + 2S^2
