write a simplified polynomial expression in the standard form to represent the area of the rectangle below x-4 5x+2
Ann [662]

The area of the rectangle is 5x^{2} -18x-8

Explanation:

One side of the rectangle is x-4

The another side of the rectangle is 5x+2

The formula to find the area of the rectangle is length × width

Area = length × width

Substituting the values, we have,

\begin{aligned}\text { Area } &=(x-4)(5 x+2) \\&=5 x^{2}+2 x-20 x-8 \\&=5 x^{2}-18 x-8\end{aligned}

Thus, the area of the rectangle is 5x^{2} -18x-8
