Area of Rectangle = length times width
lets say length = 2x-4
width = x+5
Note: you can switch these around, width could be 2x-4 and length could be x+5, it doesnt matter.
With that being said:
length * width = area
(2x-4)(x+5)=area
FOIL (First Outer Inner Last)
Simplify:
2
Suggesting that you want this in standard form, in terms of quadratic equations, you would technically follow a process similar if not almost exactly like the 2 - step equation method with the exception of separating the (x)s and the equations to find x and then plug it in and what-not.
With that being said you would subtract 5 in (x+5) from said 5 in the second equation and -10 in the first equation in order to get 2x^2+7x-15, you would continue to do the same for the x by subtracting it from both ends making the 7x a 6x because there is a 1 at the beginning of each x if there is no number that is shown already. Which finally gives you the equation (y= 2x^2+6x-15)
