Question

if you have a rectangle with a length of 0.5 x + 10 feet and a width of 6 feet how could you find the area written in its simplest form

Answer 1

Greetings!

Answer:

x + 20 = area

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to recall the equation for a rectangle:

Width x Length = Area

So simply plug the values into this:

(0.5x+10) * 6

(0.5x * 6) + (10 * 6)

= 3x + 60

Simplified down by dividing by three:

$\frac{3x}{3} + \frac{60}{3}$ = area

x + 20 = area

Hope this helps!
