If we divide  60 into say hmmm two integers, and those integers are say "a" and "b", then  a + b = 60, therefore, a = 60 - b.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{one part is divided by 6}}{\cfrac{a}{6}}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{the other part is divided by 8}}{\cfrac{b}{8}}~~=~~9
\\\\\\
\cfrac{60-b}{6}~~+~~\cfrac{b}{8}=9\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{let's multiply both sides by}\\
\textit{the LCD of 24}
\end{array}
\\\\\\
24\left( \cfrac{60-b}{6}~~+~~\cfrac{b}{8} \right)=24(9)\implies 240-4b+3b=216
\\\\\\
-b=-24\implies b=\cfrac{-24}{-1}\implies b=24

what's the first integer?  well, a = 60 - b.

write a simplified polynomial expression in the standard form to represent the area of the rectangle below x-4 5x+2
Ann [662]

The area of the rectangle is 5x^{2} -18x-8

Explanation:

One side of the rectangle is x-4

The another side of the rectangle is 5x+2

The formula to find the area of the rectangle is length × width

Area = length × width

Substituting the values, we have,

\begin{aligned}\text { Area } &=(x-4)(5 x+2) \\&=5 x^{2}+2 x-20 x-8 \\&=5 x^{2}-18 x-8\end{aligned}

Thus, the area of the rectangle is 5x^{2} -18x-8
