Answer:

The correct answer is option C.  x² - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle  = Length * Width

It is given that ,

The length of a side of a rectangle is 2 units less than a number, and the width is 4 units more than the length.

Let 'x' be the number

Length of rectangle = x - 2

Width = Length + 4 = x - 2 + 4 = x + 2

<u>To find the area of rectangle</u>

Area = Length *  Width

Area = (x - 2)*(x + 2) = x² - 4

Therefore option C.  x² - 4 is the correct answer

Answer:

  (c)  27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20

Step-by-step explanation:

As with many multiple-choice questions, you only need to look at something that will discriminate the correct answer from the wrong one.

The highest-degree product term is the product of the highest-degree terms in the factors:

  (3x^5)(9x^6) = 27x^11

This matches choice C only.

_____

In case you're interested in actually performing the rest of the multiplication, the distributive property applies.

  (1 +3x^5)(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)

  = 1(17x^2 +9x^6 -20) +3x^5(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)

  = 17x^2 +9x^6 -20 +51x^7 +27x^11 -60x^5

Writing these terms in order of decreasing exponents gives ...

  = 27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20
