Question

The adjacent sides of a rectangle are (2x – 1) and (x + 5). Find its area.

Answer 1

Answer:

2x²+9x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width

If the adjacent sides are 2x – 1) and (x + 5), the area is calculated as;

A = (2x – 1) * (x + 5).

A = 2x²+10x-x-5

A = 2x²+9x-5

Hence the area of the rectangle with the adjacent sides is  2x²+9x-5
