Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 3/4 + 9 2/8

We can simplify 2/8 by dividing the top and bottom by 2

8 3/4 + 9 1/4

Add the whole numbers

8+9 = 17

3/4 + 1/4 = 4/4 = 1

Add this to the whole numbers

17+1 = 18

Answer:

Area = $a^4+2a^3+8a^2+6a+15$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by:

Area = Height * Width

The expressions for height and width are given. We just need to multiply and add like terms (if applicable) to find the expression for the area of the rectangle.

Remember to use distributive property:

$(a+b)(x+y) = ax + ay + bx + by$

Thus, we have:

$(a^2+3)(a^2+2a+5)\\=(a^2)(a^2)+(a^2)(2a)+(a^2)(5)+3a^2+6a+15\\=a^4+2a^3+5a^2+3a^2+6a+15\\=a^4+2a^3+8a^2+6a+15$

THis is the expression for area.
