Answer:

The area is: 4x^5 + 8x^3

Equation: (2x^3 + 4x) * 2x^2

^ = exponent

* = multiply

Explanation:

When you try to find the rectangle of an area, the formula is:

Length * Width

In this case, the length is:

2x^3 + 4x

And the width is:

2x^2

Now let's solve the equation.

(2x^3 + 4x) * 2x^2

We need to combine like terms

2x^3 + 2x^2 = 4x^5

After evaluating the equation:

4x^5 + 8x^3

The area is: 4x^5 + 8x^3

hope this helped :)
