A rectangle has length x + 5 and width x−3 . What is the area of the rectangle? Write your answer as a polynomial in standard form.(2 points)
L×W=A=
The length of the rectangle is x+5 and the width is x-3.
A = (x+5)(x-3)
A = x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15
A = x^2 + 2x - 15
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is x^2 + 2x - 15.
its the wrong answer
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
Given:
Length = x + 5
Width = x - 3
To find the area of the rectangle, we use the formula:
Area = Length x Width
Substitute the given values:
Area = (x + 5)(x - 3)
Area = x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15
Area = x^2 + 2x - 15
So, the correct area of the rectangle is x^2 + 2x - 15.
pls give me the right answer this is a big test to me
I apologize for the confusion earlier. Let's solve for the correct area of the rectangle.
Given:
Length = x + 5
Width = x - 3
To find the area of the rectangle, we use the formula:
Area = Length x Width
Substitute the given values:
Area = (x + 5)(x - 3)
Area = x^2 - 3x + 5x - 15
Area = x^2 + 2x - 15
Therefore, the correct area of the rectangle is x^2 + 2x - 15.
