Answer:

  A. x² -4

  B. 2x² +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is the square of the side lengths. That means the area of each large square is x², since it has a side length of x.

__

A. The area of 4 small squares is subtracted from the area of the large square to find the shaded area:

  x² -4×1² = x² -4 . . . area of Figure A

__

B. The area of two small squares is added to the area of two large squares to find the shaded area:

  2x² +2×2² = 2x² +8 . . . area of Figure B
