PERFORMANCE TASK 2
MATHEMATICS 7: Quarter 2
Performance Task No. 2 – Expressions & Operations
Title: Polynomial Farm

Directions: You are planting a garden this summer. You want to plant squash, melon, corn,
eggplant, sweet potato. You plan for the field layout in feet is shown in the figure below. Use the
figure and your knowledge of polynomials, area and perimeter to solve the following:

Length = longer side

Width = shorter side

North

4x x + 5 8x - 2 2x + 3

8x + 1
Squash
West East
Corn Eggplant
5x + 2

x+1
Melon

Sweet Potato

x+5 4x - 1 6x + 2

South

TASKS:
1. Write an expression that represents the length of the south side of the field and simplify
2. Write an expression that represents the length of the north side of the field and simplify
3. Write a polynomial expression that represents the perimeter of the melon field and
simplify. (P = 2l + 2w)
4. Write and simplify the polynomial expression that represents the perimeter of the sweet
potato field if x = 3. (P = 2l + 2w)
Extra Credit:
1. Solve the perimeter of the whole farm.
Hint: Add all the lengths of the sides of the farm.
2. Solve the perimeter of the corn field.
Hint: Break the field into two parts.
