Answer :

For this case the new area is the sum of two areas:
 Area = rectangular gym + weight room
 Area = (4x² + 520) ft²
 In addition, we know that
 rectangular gym = 4x ^ 2 ft²
 Therefore, the term 520 represents a new weight room

Answer:

The constant term represent the area of the weight room

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

R-----> the area of the rectangular gym

W-----> the area of the weight room

A-----> the area total

we know that

[tex]A=R+W[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]R=4x^{2}\ ft^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A=(4x^{2}+520)\ ft^{2}[/tex]

substitute in the formula above and solve for W

[tex](4x^{2}+520)=4x^{2}+W[/tex]

[tex]W=520\ ft^{2}[/tex]

therefore

The constant term W represent the area of the weight room
