Question

I need helpThe length of a rectangle is (Iunits, and its width is (x + 11) units. Which expression can represent the area of the rectangle?OA. X^2 - 3x + 88OB. X^2 + 3x – 88OC.X^2 – 3x – 88OD. X^2 + 3x + 88

Answer 1

We have a rectangle with length L=x-8 and width W=x+11

Let's remember that the area of a rectangle is given by the following equation

`A_R=L\cdot W`

We replace these values

`A_R=(x+11)(x-8)`

We multiply and solve

`\begin{gathered} A_R=x^2-8x+11x-88 \\ A_R=x^2+3x-88 \end{gathered}`

The answer is option B
