Question

PLEASE HELPP!!!!

Philip and Laura want to build a pool in their backyard. The length and width of the pool can be represented by the equation f(x)=(x-3)(5x+2) feet. What is the area of Philip and Laura’s pool? You must show your work and include your units.

Answer 1

5 by 2, 13 by 4, and 6 by 6.

The pool at Philip and Laura's home is therefore 5 x 2 x 13 x 6 square feet in size.

Explanation:

We must multiply the pool's length by its breadth to determine its area. The formula f(x) = (x-3)(5x+2) yields the length and width, so:

Size equals (x-3) feet

Size is (5x+2) feet wide.

Length times Width equals (x-3) times (5x+2) square feet.

Increasing the brackets results in:

Area: 5 by 2, 13 by 4, and 6 by 6.

The pool at Philip and Laura's home is therefore 5 x 2 x 13 x 6 square feet in size.
