Question

The length of a rectangle is represented by (6x − 2), and the width is represented by (x − 1). Which expression best represents the area of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer: 6x^2 -8x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is just length multiplied by width so would have:

Area = length x width = (6x-2)(x-1) = 6x^2 -8x +2.
