3.1
4r
Area​

Answer 1

`12x^2+4x`

Explanation:

The area of a square or rectangle can be found by multiplying the width by the height. Since we now both, we can create an expression.

`(3x+1)*(4x)`

Now we can apply the distributive law/property to expand the expression.

`3x(4x)+1(4x)`

Finally, we can simplify.

`12x^2+4x`
