Answer:
<h2>D. (42 - 2x)(32 - 2x) = 900</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Look at the picture.</em>
The dimensions of the picture:
(42 - 2x)in × (32 -2x)in
The formula of an area of a rectangle:
A = l · w
l - length, w - width
Substitute l = (42 - 2x), w = (32 - 2x) and A = 900
(42 - 2x)(32 - 2x) = 900

m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
so that means that the y-intercept of

is

Set up an algebraic equation. This is what it looks like based on what the question tells you:
Let a = area of pentagon
a+27 = 4a-15
3a-15 = 27
3a = 42
a = 14
