A sports team is building a new stadium on a rectangular lot of land the lot measures 8x by 12x and the stadium will be 3x by 6x. How much land will be left for the parking lot

1 answer

The area of the entire lot is 8x * 12x = <<8*12=96>>96x^2.
The area of the stadium is 3x * 6x = <<3*6=18>>18x^2.
Therefore, the area of land left for the parking lot is 96x^2 - 18x^2 = 78x^2. Answer: \boxed{78x^2}.
