There's a rectangle. The width is 6p + 4 and the length is 2p + 1. Simplify your expression.
You do not say but I suspect you want the area.
Area = (6 p + 4)(2 p + 1)
= 12 p^2 + 6 p + 8 p + 4
= 12 p^2 + 14 p + 4
Sorry I forgot to put PERIMETER, I'm so sorry.
To simplify the expression, we can start by multiplying the values inside the parentheses.
The width is 6p + 4.
The length is 2p + 1.
Now, let's find the area of the rectangle by multiplying the width by the length:
Area = (6p + 4) * (2p + 1)
To simplify this, we can use the distributive property of multiplication. This means we multiply each term in the first set of parentheses by each term in the second set of parentheses:
Area = 6p * 2p + 6p * 1 + 4 * 2p + 4 * 1
Simplifying further:
Area = 12p^2 + 6p + 8p + 4
Combining like terms:
Area = 12p^2 + 14p + 4
So, the simplified expression for the area of the rectangle is 12p^2 + 14p + 4.
