To determine how much space will be left for the presentation after using squares of size 7 inches, we first need to calculate the total area occupied by the 10 squares.
Each square has an area of:
\[
\text{Area of one square} = \text{side}^2 = 7^2 = 49 \text{ square inches}
\]
Now, to find the area occupied by 10 squares:
\[
\text{Total area of 10 squares} = 10 \times 49 = 490 \text{ square inches}
\]
Next, we subtract the total area of the squares from the total area of the poster:
\[
\text{Area left for presentation} = \text{Total area of the poster} - \text{Total area of 10 squares} = 720 - 490 = 230 \text{ square inches}
\]
Now, according to your question, you asked to evaluate the expression \(720 - 10 + 2\) when \(s = 7\). Let's calculate that as well:
Substituting \(s\) with 7:
\[
720 - 10 + 2 = 720 - 10 + 2 = 712
\]
So to summarize:
- The space left for his presentation is **230 square inches.**
- The value of \(720 - 10 + 2\) when \(s = 7\) is **712.**
