The expression that can be used to find the area of the tiled floor is 4w² + 200w

Area of rectangle

  • Original rectangle:

Length = 70 Meters

Width = 30 meters

Area = length × width

= 70 × 30

= 2100

  • New rectangle(including tiled floor):

Length = 70 + 2w meters

Width = 30 + 2w meters

Area = length × width

= (70+2w) (30+2w)

= 2100 + 140w + 60w + 4w²

= 4w² + 200w + 2100

Area of the tiled floor = Area of new rectangle - area of old rectangle

= (4w² + 200w + 2100) - 2100

= 4w² + 200w + 2100 - 2100

= 4w² + 200w
