## andjie Group Title I need help checking this I c if possible can you tell me where i went wrong one year ago one year ago

1. andjie

hold on i have to post it

2. andjie

here is what i got Area=lw= (t+5)(t+3) = t^2+8t+15 Area=t^(2+) 5t+3t=15 = t^2+8t+15

3. andjie

here is the question Find two algebraic expressions for the area of each figure. First, regard the figure as one large rectangle, and then regard the figure as a sum of four smaller rectangles.

6. sirm3d

your answer $\large \text{Area} = t^2 + 8t + 15$ is correct.

7. andjie

So the first part is correct ? what am i missing for the second one

8. sirm3d

you need to give the area of each of the smaller regions

9. andjie

how do i do that i am sorry if i am irritating you

10. andjie

area=t^2+3t+5t=15

11. andjie

I dont know I am trying

12. sirm3d

Total area = t^2 + 3t + 5t + 15

13. andjie

ok i was close yet again

14. andjie

thats all i needed wow i am truly special
