3. CONSTRUCTION A rectangular deck is built around a square pool. The pool has side length s. The

length of the deck is 5 units longer than twice the side

length of the pool. The width of the deck is 3 units

longer than the side length of the pool. What is the

area of the deck in terms of s?

Did I do this right or was I supposed to leave it as a trinomial?

Area of the deck in terms of s is  

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool side length = s

Length of the deck  = 5 +2s

Width of the deck = 3 + s

Area of the deck = Length  * width  ( as the deck is rectangle)

                       = (5 + 2s)(3+s) =

                  Area =

you are saying it as if a fact, not a question, but yes, you would be correct? ; )
