A gardener plans to extend the length of a rectangular garden. Let x represent the garden's original length. The expression 4(x+7) represents the area of the extended garden. WHen asked for the area of the extended portion the gardener incorrectly said it was 11 square feet. Describe the error the gardener made.

The error gardener made is that the area of the extended portion is 28 ft² instead of 11 ft².

Given to us

The original length of the garden is x.

The Area of the extended garden is 4(x+7).

Given to us is the area of the complete garden, therefore, comparing the expression with the area of a rectangle,

Therefore, the breadth of the rectangle is 4 feet, since the breadth of the rectangle is not been changed the breadth of the rectangle is same as before, also (x+7) represents the complete length of the garden after it is extended, and since the original length of the garden is x, the length extended is 7 feet.

We know that the breadth of the rectangular garden is 4 and the area of extended length is 7, therefore,

The Area of the only Extended Portion of the Garden

= 4 x 7 = 28 ft²

Hence, the error gardener made is that the area of the extended portion is 28 ft² instead of 11 ft².
