To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following information given in the problem above:
- The<span> room has square dimensions and it has been built with two pieces of sheetrock, a smaller one and a larger one.
2. Therefore, let's call
x: the smaller one.
y: the larger one.
3. Then, you have that the lenght of the wall is the sum of the smaller one and the larger one:
x+y
4. So, the area of the room is:
(x+y)(x+y)
(x+y)</span>²
Therefore, the answer is: (x+y)²
Twice the number n will be expressed as 2n. So, that will be in our final answer. In order to decrease the number by 6, we will subtract 6. So there will be a - 6 in our final answer. Together, this is 2n - 6, and that is the same as the second option. So, the second option is the correct one.
36+10=46 the answer you are looking for is 46.
Step-by-step explanation:
Associative Property states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped. By 'grouped', I mean 'how you use parenthesis'. In other words, if you are adding or multiplying it does not matter where you put the parenthesis. Example: 3+(2-4) can be rewritten as (3+2)-4.
hope it helps!
