Question

A rectangle has a width represented by the expression 2y and a length represented by 12y - 5. Which expression represents the area of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Area is Length times width,

length 2y

Width 12y - 5

2y (12y - 5)

24y^2 - 10y

Answer 2

`Area=24y^(2) -10y`

Explanation:

Hello, I think I can help you with this

the area of a rectangle is given by

Area of the rectangle= width of the rectangle * length of the rectangle

Step 1

According to the question data

Let

width = 2y

length=12y-5

`Area =(2y)*(12y-5)\\Area=(2y)(12y)-(2y)(5)\\Area=24y^(2) -10y`

the expression that represents the area of the rectangle is

`Area=24y^(2) -10y`

and it depends on y,

Have a nice day.
