Question

What is the area? Bit confused on this one.

Answer 1

x^2 + 8x + 12

Explanation:

length = x+6

breadth = x+2

ara of rectangle = l*b

=(x+6)(x+2)

=x(x+2) +6(x+2)

=x^2 + 2x + 6x +12

=x^2 + 8x +12

Answer 2

x² + 8x + 12

Explanation:

see

the length of the entire rectangle = x + 6

breadth of the entire rectangle = x + 2

area of a rectangle = length × breadth

= (x + 6)(x + 2)

= x² + 8x + 12

which is the required polynomial in standard form
