Answer:

The expression of the area as a monomial is 18c^7d^9

Explanation:

In algebra, when we talk about the term monomial, we are simply referring to an algebraic expression that contains only a single term.

Now in this question, we have the value of the length and the width but we are interested in turning them to a monomial which is a single term.

Mathematically, the area of rectangle can be calculated using the formula L * W , where l is the length and w is the width.

Thus, we have ;

2c^3d^2 * 9d^7

= 18c^7d^(2+7)

= 18c^7d^9
