Write a simplified polynomial expression in standard form to represent the area of the rectangle below.
Burka [1]
Area of Rectangle = length times width
lets say length = 2x-4
width = x+5

Note: you can switch these around, width could be 2x-4 and length could be x+5, it doesnt matter.

With that being said:
length * width = area
(2x-4)(x+5)=area
FOIL (First Outer Inner Last)
2x^{2}+10x-4x-20=area
Simplify:
x^{2}+6x-20=area

Transformation is a process of changing the size and shape of an object. The given graph is a graph of quadratic function with parent function x².

According to the graph shown the resulting parent function has been shifted horizontally to the right by 5 units to produce g(x) = f(x) - 5
