Question

How do you find the area of the field in terms of x

Answer 1

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  104x^2 + 166x + 66

Discussion:

The area of a rectangle is given by "length" * "width". For us the formula becomes

 (13x + 11) * (8x+6)

or

13x (8x +6) + 11 * (8x + 6)  =

(13x * 8x + 13x* 6) + ( 11*8x + 11*6) =

(104x^2 + 78x ) + (88x + 66) =

104x^2 + (78x + 88x) + 66 =

104x^2 + 166x + 66

Thank you,

MrB
