✓ Mark needs to buy enough tile to cover his kitchen floor with the 5/5measurements shown. Write a simplified polynomial expressions withterms in descending order to represent the amount of tile, in squaremeters, Mark should buy to cover his floor. Remember m 2 is the units,don't be confused by it. **Hint**Break up the figure into two rectangles**(4x+22) m(6x - 18) m(11x-4) m(2x + 5) m

Procedure

- Calculate the height of the lowerrectangle

height = 11x - 4 - (6x - 18)

= 11x - 4 - 6x + 18

= 5x + 14

-Calculate the area of the lower rectangle

Area = (5x + 14) (2x + 5)

= 10x(2) + 25x + 28x + 70

= 10x(2) + 53x + 70

-Calculate the area of the upper triangle

Area = (4x + 22)(6x - 18)

= 24x(2) - 72x + 132x - 396

= 24x(2) + 60x - 396

-Calculate the area of the kitchen

Area = 10x(2) + 53x + 70 + 24x(2) + 60x - 396

= 34x(2) + 113x - 396 m(2) Number two is an exponent

but I cannt write exponents
