    The sketch of the garden and the pond is shown below

    Area of garden = length * width

    Area of garden = [3x + 5] * 3x

    Area of garden = 3x[3x+5]

    Area of garden = 9x² + 15x

    Area of pond = [x-2] * x

    Area of pond = x[x-2]

    Area of pond = x² - 2x

    Area to be re-sod = Area of garden - Area of pond

    Area to be re-sod = 9x² + 15x - [x² - 2x]

    Area to be re-sod = 9x² - x² + 15x + 2x

    Area to be re-sod = 8x² + 17x

    The amount of sod needed to be bought would depend on how much in each packaging they are being sold.
