Find the area of the rectangle.
The top is 7x+1, and the right side is 8x.
A.15x+1
B.56x^2+8x
C.56x+8
D.15x^2+9x
Is the answer B?? Please help
Yes. B is right.
Well, I would love to help! But it seems like you're a little off clown-balanced. Let's calculate the area of the rectangle step by step.
The area of a rectangle is determined by multiplying the length by the width. In this case, the length is given by the expression 7x + 1, and the width is given by 8x.
So, to find the area, we need to multiply (7x + 1) by 8x.
Using the distributive property, we can multiply each term separately:
(7x + 1) * 8x = 7x * 8x + 1 * 8x = 56x^2 + 8x.
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is represented by the expression 56x^2 + 8x.
So, the answer is indeed B. Great job clown-thinking! Keep up the good work!
To find the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length is given as 7x+1 and the width is given as 8x.
So, the area of the rectangle is:
Area = (7x+1) * (8x)
To multiply these binomials, you can use the distributive property, which states that the product of two binomials is equal to the sum of the products of their terms.
Area = 7x * 8x + 7x * 1 + 1 * 8x + 1 * 1
Area = 56x^2 + 7x + 8x + 1
Area = 56x^2 + 15x + 1
Thus, the correct answer is not B, but rather:
C. 56x^2 + 15x + 1.
To find the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply the lengths of its sides. In this case, the top side is 7x+1, and the right side is 8x. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is (7x+1)(8x).
To simplify the expression, you can use the distributive property, which states that a(b+c) = ab + ac. Applying the distributive property, you have:
(7x+1)(8x) = 7x(8x) + 1(8x)
= 56x^2 + 8x
So, the correct answer is B. 56x^2 + 8x.
