96 x squared
To find the amount of land left for the parking lot, we first need to calculate the total area of the rectangular lot: 8x * 12x = 96x^2.
Then, we calculate the area that the stadium will take up: 3x * 6x = 18x^2.
To find the land left for the parking lot, we subtract the area of the stadium from the total area of the lot: 96x^2 - 18x^2 = 78x^2.
Therefore, the land left for the parking lot is 78x^2.
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?
