Answer:

It is more efficient to use order of operations because with the distributive property, you would have to multiply four times and add once (5 things to do), whereas with order of operations, you have to add twice and multiply twice (4 things to do).

A square rug lies in the middle of a rectangular room. There are 6 feet of uncovered floor on 2 sides of the rug and 2 feet of u
Gekata [30.6K]

The polynomial expression for the area of the room is f(x) = x^2 + 16x + 48.

Here, we are given that the side of the length of the rug = x

Now, the square rug is placed on the rectangular room such that on 2 sides the uncovered floor is 6 meters.

This means that the length of the 2 opposite sides of the rectangle will be (x + 6 + 6) = (x + 12)

Similarly, there is 2 feet of uncovered floor on the other 2 sides, which means that the length of other two opposite sides is- (x + 2 + 2) = (x + 4)

Kindly refer to the diagram below for a better clarity of how we found out the sides.

Now, the area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth

Thus, area of the room = (x + 12) (x + 4)

= x^2 + 4x + 12x + 48

= x^2 + 16x + 48

Thus, the polynomial expression for the area of the room is f(x) = x^2 + 16x + 48
