Part A

Answer:  h^2 + 4h

-------------------

Explanation:

We multiply the length and height to get the area

area = (length)*(height)

area = (h+4)*(h)

area = h(h+4)

area = h^2 + 4h .... apply the distributive property

The units for the area are in square inches.

===========================================================

Part B

Answer:  h^2 + 16h + 60

-------------------

Explanation:

If we add a 3 inch frame along the border, then we're adding two copies of 3 inches along the bottom side. The h+4 along the bottom updates to h+4+3+3 = h+10 along the bottom.

Similarly, along the vertical side we'd have the h go to h+3+3 = h+6

The old rectangle that was h by h+4 is now h+6 by h+10

Multiply these expressions to find the area

area = length*width

area = (h+6)(h+10)

area = x(h+10) ..... replace h+6 with x

area = xh + 10x .... distribute

area = h( x ) + 10( x )

area = h( h+6 ) + 10( h+6 ) .... plug in x = h+6

area = h^2+6h + 10h+60 .... distribute again twice more

area = h^2 + 16h + 60

You can also use the box method or the FOIL rule as alternative routes to find the area.

The units for the area are in square inches.
