The sides of a rectangle have length x+ 2 and width x -5. Which equation describes the area, A, of the rectangle in terms of x?​

Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The area in factored form is A=(x+2)(x-5).

The area in standard form is A=x^2-3x-10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is length times width.

So the area here is (x+2)(x-5).

They are probably not looking for A=(x+2)(x-5) because it requires too little work.

They probably want A in standard form instead of factored form.

Let's use foil:

First x(x)=x^2

Outer: x(-5)=-5x

Inner: 2(x)=2x

Last: 2(-5)=-10

---------------------Adding together:  x^2-3x-10.

The area in factored form is A=(x+2)(x-5).

The area in standard form is A=x^2-3x-10.

A shopper needs 48 hot dogs. The store sells identical hot dogs in 2 differently sized packages. They sell a six pack hot dog fo
Archy [21]

Answer:He should buy the six pack.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of hotdogs that the shopper needs is 48.

The store sells identical hot dogs in 2 differently sized packages. They sell a six pack hot dog for $2.10, and an eight pack of hot dog for $3.12.

If the shopper buys the six pack hot dog, he would need to buy 8 of it. The total cost would be

8 × 2.10 = $16.8

If the shopper buys the eight pack hot dog, he would need to buy 6 of it. The total cost would be

6 × 3.12 = $18.72

The 6 pack is cheaper than the eight pack. Therefore,

He should buy the six pack.
