Area of rhombus = 126 m²
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>We are given that the two diagonals of the rhombus are:</u>
D₁ = 14 meters and D₂ = 18 meters
<u>The area of the rhombus using its diagonals can be calculated using the following rule:</u>

<u>Substitute with the given values to get the area as follows:</u>

Hope this helps :)
So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)
you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2
here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)
now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8
to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8
The above is the answer :)
The discount is $2.60. $6.50 + $2.60 = $9.10. $9.10 is the original price.
