first off lets get the area of the square
a=(w+5)(w+5)
=w^2+10w+25
now we get the area of the rectangle
r=(w+2)(w-3)
=w^2-w-6
and subtract the areas
a(remaining)=a-r
=(w^2+10w+25)-(w^2-w-6)
=11w+31
and that is the area that is left

Find the areas by multiplying out length times width by FOIL
(w+5)(w+5)
(w+2)(w-3)
Then subtract the second answer from the first. be sure to subtract all three terms; that is, change all three terms' signs before combining like terms.
