Answer:

[tex]Area = (30 + x)(20 + x)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the area of a rectangle is the product of its length multiplied by its width.

Initially the dog run has a length of 30 ft long and 20 ft wide.

If you want to expand the track, increase the length of each side by a factor x. So, the dimensions of the expanded dog run will be:

[tex]Length = 30 + x\\Width = 20 + x[/tex]

Then, the area is:

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

[tex]Area = (30 + x)(20 + x)[/tex]
