Question

Express the area of the entire rectangle. Your answer should be a polynomial in standard form.

x+2 x+4

Answer 1

Answer: A=x²+6x+8

Explanation:

Since we are looking to find the area of the entire rectangle, we would use the formula
`A=lw`.
`l` is length and
`w` is width. You would approach this problem like any other area of the rectangle problem, except you are dealing with polynomials instead.

`A=(x+2)(x+4)`

`A=x^2+4x+2x+8`

`A=x^2+6x+8`
