1 Topic 23: Polynomial addition and multiplication 377 POLYNOMIAL ADDITION AND MULTIPLICATION Lesson 23.1 Introduction to polynomials 23.1 OPENER The Bradley family has decided to build a house in a new subdivision in Smithville. The Bradleys have already purchased a 150- foot by 200- foot lot on which to construct the new home. They start by looking at a plan of the lot. 1. What is the area of the Bradleys lot? The subdivision developer was given guidelines for building in the area. Two guidelines apply to the placement of the house on the lot. First, the builder must leave a 20- foot easement on either side of the house to accommodate the placement of utilities. Second, the builder must locate the house at least 50 feet back from the front of the lot, to allow for sidewalks, streetlights, and landscaping. 2. What is the area of the portion of the lot that the Bradleys can use for building their house? 23.1 CORE ACTIVITY 1. Will a house with the dimensions shown here fit in the allowable space on the Bradleys lot? How do you know? 2. What does x represent in the Bradleys house plan?
