Determine the area of the following shape:

4x+8
⬜ 2
That is a rectangle 4x+8 is on the top and 2 is on the right side. Please help

A = L*W = (4x+8)*2 =

Can you please continue to solve this problem. I do not remember how to solve (4x+8)*2. I am a parent trying to teach my son how to work this out. Thank you!

Multiply each term by 2:

(4x+8)*2 = 8x+16.

To determine the area of a rectangle, we need to multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length is given as 4x+8 and the width is given as 2.

To find the area, we multiply the length by the width:

Area = (4x+8) * 2

To simplify the expression, we distribute the 2 to both terms inside the parentheses:

Area = 2 * 4x + 2 * 8

Area = 8x + 16

Therefore, the area of the given rectangle is 8x + 16.
