The expression below represents the perimeter, in feet, of Manual’s garden. 15 + 2x + 7 + 15 + 2x + 7 Use exactly two terms to write an equivalent expression to represent the perimeter, in feet, of Manual’s garden. The area, measured in square feet, of Manual’s garden is found by calculating 15(2x + 7). Manual incorrectly says the area can also be found using the expression 30x + 7. Describe the error in Manual’s expression. Also, find the difference, in square feet, between the actual area of Manual’s garden and the area found using his expression as a part of your explanation. Manual’s friend Sasha designs a square garden. Each side measures 3x + 5 in length. The perimeter of Sasha’s garden is how much larger than the perimeter of Manual’s garden?​

The perimeter of Sasha’s garden is 8x - 24 larger than the perimeter of Manual’s garden

The equivalent expression using exactly two terms

The perimeter is given as:

P =  15 + 2x + 7 + 15 + 2x + 7

Collect like terms

P =  2x + 2x + 7 + 15 +  15  + 7

Evaluate the like terms

P = 4x + 44

The area of the garden

The area of the garden is given as:

A = 15(2x + 7).

Expand

A = 30x + 105

Manual's expression of the area is 30x + 7

Hence, Manuel's error is that he did not multiply 15 by 7 when expanding the bracket and the actual area is 30x + 105

The difference between the areas of Manual’s garden and Sasha's design

The side length of Sasha's design is:

L = 3x + 5 in

So, the area is:

A = (3x + 5)^2

Expand

A = 9x^2 + 16x + 25

The difference between both areas is:

Difference = 9x^2 + 16x - 30x + 25 - 105

Evaluate

Difference = 9x^2 - 14x - 80

Hence, the difference between the areas of Manual’s garden and Sasha's design is 9x^2 - 14x - 80

The perimeter of Sasha's garden

This is calculated using:

P = 4L

So, we have:

P = 12x + 20

The difference between both perimeter is:

Difference = 12x - 4x + 20 - 44

Evaluate

Difference = 8x - 24

Hence, the perimeter of Sasha’s garden is 8x - 24 larger than the perimeter of Manual’s garden
