I need help
A family has a rectangular back yard that measures 5x+4 by 3x-2 they are building a square patio with side lengths that measure x+3. write an expression for the area of grass that will be left in the back yard after the patio is built. show your work.
John did this for you at 4:00 and you even thanked him for it.
What is going on ???

it's a different one that I have to do
wait sorry I posted the wrong one
A family has a rectangular back yard that measures 3 + 5 by 2 − 1. They are building a square patio with side lengths that measure + 3. Write an expression for the area of the grass that will be left in the back yard after the patio is built.
it's 3x + 5 by 2x - 1 and x-3
so do it the same way. where do you get stuck?
It's the same type of question!
All you have to do is change the data.

yes there are typos lol
I need help on how to get started
ohmegod it’s been 2 years are u okay did u find out how to do it :(
To find the area of grass that will be left in the backyard after the patio is built, we need to calculate the area of the entire backyard and subtract the area of the patio.
First, let's find the area of the rectangular backyard. The length is given as 5x+4 and the width is given as 3x-2. We can calculate the area by multiplying the length by the width:
Area of backyard = (5x+4)(3x-2)
Now, let's find the area of the square patio. The side length is given as x+3. The area of a square can be calculated by squaring the side length:
Area of patio = (x+3)(x+3)
To find the area of grass that will be left in the backyard, we subtract the area of the patio from the area of the backyard:
Area of grass = Area of backyard - Area of patio
Area of grass = (5x+4)(3x-2) - (x+3)(x+3)
Now you can simplify the expression by multiplying out the terms and combining like terms.
