A rectangle is 10 inches longer than it is tall. The height of the rectangle is 7 inches. What is the area of the rectangle?(1 point)
The length of the rectangle can be found by adding the 10 inches longer to the height:
Height = 7 inches
Length = 7 inches + 10 inches = 17 inches
The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length by the height:
Area = Length x Height
Area = 17 inches x 7 inches
Area = 119 square inches
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 119 square inches.
