Answer:
10x + 12 and 6x² + 11x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as
P = 2l + 2w ( l is length and w is width )
= 2(2x - 1) + 2(3x + 7) ← distribute parenthesis
= 4x - 2 + 6x + 14 ← collect like terms
= 10x + 12
--------------------------------------------------
The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as
A = lw
= (2x - 1)(3x + 7) ← expand using FOIL
= 6x² + 14x - 3x - 7 ← collect like terms
= 6x² + 11x - 7
Answer:
a^2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
the numerator simplifies to 5a^3 and the bottom is 15a. we can use our exponent rules to subtract exponents, so it is 1/3(a^2). this simplifies to a^2/3.
