The area of the rectangle as a single expression

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: $A=15x^2+6x-48$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

$A=l*w$

Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width.

You can identify from the figure that the length and the width of this rectangle are:

$length=3(x+2)\\width=5x-8$

Then, you need to substitute this lenght and this width into $A=l*w$ :

$A=3(x+2)(5x-8)$

Now, apply Distributive property:

$A=(3x+6)(5x-8)\\\\A=15x^2-24x+30x-48$

Finally, you need to add the like terms. Then, you get:

$A=15x^2+6x-48$
