Part A
<h3>Answer:
h^2 + 4h</h3>
-------------------
Explanation:
We multiply the length and height to get the area
area = (length)*(height)
area = (h+4)*(h)
area = h(h+4)
area = h^2 + 4h .... apply the distributive property
The units for the area are in square inches.

Part B
<h3>Answer:
h^2 + 16h + 60</h3>
-------------------
Explanation:
If we add a 3 inch frame along the border, then we're adding two copies of 3 inches along the bottom side. The h+4 along the bottom updates to h+4+3+3 = h+10 along the bottom.
Similarly, along the vertical side we'd have the h go to h+3+3 = h+6
The old rectangle that was h by h+4 is now h+6 by h+10
Multiply these expressions to find the area
area = length*width
area = (h+6)(h+10)
area = x(h+10) ..... replace h+6 with x
area = xh + 10x .... distribute
area = h( x ) + 10( x )
area = h( h+6 ) + 10( h+6 ) .... plug in x = h+6
area = h^2+6h + 10h+60 .... distribute again twice more
area = h^2 + 16h + 60
You can also use the box method or the FOIL rule as alternative routes to find the area.
The units for the area are in square inches.
Answer:
The distributive property is not properly applied to the second polynomial.
Step-by-step explanation:
For whatever reason, it is a common mistake to say that ...
-(a +b +c) = -a +b +c . . . . WRONG!
Rather, it should be ...
-(a +b +c) = -a -b -c . . . . CORRECT
Answer:
132 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the supplement be x and the angle be y.
x + y = 180 degrees.
y = (3x - 12) degrees.
x + 3x - 12 = 180
4x = 192
x = 48 degrees
y = 132 degrees

Answer:
54 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use proportions
1 inch 27 inches
--------- = ------------
2 feet x feet
Using cross products
1x = 54
The building is 54 feet
