Dylan uses the expressions (x^2 -2x+8) and (2x^2 + 5x - 7) to represent the length and width of his bedroom. Which expression re
Oksanka [162]

2x^4 + x^3 - x^2 +54x - 56 expression represents the area of Dylan’s room

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that,

Length of room = x^2 -2x+8

Width of room = 2x^2 + 5x - 7

To find: Expression that the area (lw) of Dylan’s room

Since bedroom is generally of rectangular shape, we can use area of rectangle

<em><u>The area of rectangle is given as:</u></em>

\text {area of rectangle }=\text { length } \times \text { width }

Substituting the given expressions of length and width,

area = (x^2 -2x+8)(2x^2 + 5x - 7)

We multiply each term inside first parenthesis with each term inside the second parenthesis.

So it becomes,

2x^4 + 5x^3 - 7x^2 -4x^3 -10x^2 +14x +16x^2 +40x - 56

Now combine like terms,

2x^4 + x^3 - x^2 +54x - 56

Thus the above expression represents the area of Dylan’s room

Write as many equations as possible that could represent the relationship between
IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) Here we have:

"In Family A, the youngest child is 7 years younger than the oldest, who is 18"

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

O = age of the oldest child.

Then we know that:

Y = O - 7

O = 18

Then we can replace the second equation into the first one:

Y = 18 - 7 = 11.

b) Here we have:

"In Family B, the middle child is 5 years older than the youngest child."

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

M = age of the middle child.

Here we have only one equation:

M = Y + 5.
