14. Password Solving

Jenny Ann POV

Graphic English is just a way to disturb us and prevent us to save Emerson. While we are solving the graphic english, they are playing 'hide in the dark'. How dare they! We have to know who is the killer before we get killed. We are still in the computer house. That disturbing video made us more frightened. I went outside and I started to cry. It is still dark, no electricity. Why is this happening?  Suddenly, mom contacted me.

"Hello, Jenny, how are you?", mom asked.

"Mom, help us.", I said.

"What are you talking about? You are supposed to enjoy your vacation. Why are you calling for help?", she asked.

"Mom. There is a killer here. We have to know who they are before we get killed."

"What do you mean?! They? So you mean there are more than one killer there."

"Yes mom. Help please."

"Don't worry, I will send police officers there.", mom said. I am excited to go away from this resort. I told my clasmates about this.

"Really! Great! I hope, they will come early.", Jean said so excitedly.

"Yeah! Great!", Reign Marie said.

"I hope so!", I said. I was nervous. I don't know why. We turned off the computer. Computer House and the treehouse are the only places here that have light. The killers I think turned off the circuit breakers. We went out of the computer house to go back. We all went to the big house of the resort. We went inside the room to have some rest but suddenly, we saw a game sheet and what the heck is that!?

Direction: Solve the problems given to you. This will help. It is up to you uf you will solve for this or not. But I assure you, this is a big help. After you solve the math problem, turn on the laptop and open the file named USER FILES. There is an MS word file there. Open it.

A square lot has a side of ( 2x + 6y ). They built a square house in the lot that has a side of ( 4x + 9y ). What is the area of the lot before the house was built? What is the area of the house? What is the area of lot when the house was built?

We asked Andrew how will he solve for this. Fortunately, he knows how.

Andrew POV

The problem is easy. ( 2x + 6y )^2. The answer is. 4x^2 + 24xy + 36y^2. That is the area of the lot. ( 4x + 9y )^2. The answer is 16x^2 + 72xy + 81y^2, the area of the house.

Subtract:

4x^2 + 24xy + 36y^2 - 16x^2 + 72xy + 81y^2. The answer must be -12x^2 - 48xy - 45y^2.

-12x^2 - 48xy - 45y^2 is the area of the lot when the house was built. We went to the other room and we turned on the laptop. It has a password. We saw a crumpled paper and it contains the clues. Three clues are in there.
