    Dotson's deck is Larger.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given, Dotson deck had a side length of 11 feet and Engels family deck had a total area of 118 square feet.

    So, side length of Dotson's deck (d) = 11 feet

    and, area of Engels family deck = 118 square feet.

    The question of whose deck is larger can be solved by computing the are of Dotson's deck and comparing both the decks.

    Area of Dotson's deck = side * side = 11 * 11 = 121 square feet.

    By comparison, we can see that 121 square feet is greater than 118 square feet.

    Hence, Dotson's deck is larger.
