A negative number wouldn't be reasonable in investments because when you invest you are adding money to something. If you invest you aren't removing anything so there can't be negative numbers.

Okay. So, what we do first is do the distributive property by multiply each number in the parenthesis by 3. When we do that, we get (6x + 12), because 3 * 2x is 6x and 4 * 3 is 12. Now, the numbers written out in long form is 5 + 6x + 12 + 6. 6x is in simplified form, because there is nothing that we can combine it with, but we do need to combine the whole numbers. 5 + 12 is 17, and 17 + 6 is 23. The expression in simplified form is 6x + 23. The answer is B.

The unshaded area inside the figure to the right is 648 in.² Use this fact to write an equation involving x. Then solve the equa

The second order polynomial that involves the variable x (border inside the rectangle) and associated to the unshaded area is x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0.

<h3>How to derive an expression for the area of an unshaded region of a rectangle</h3>

The area of a rectangle (A), in square inches, is equal to the product of its width (w), in inches, and its height (h), in inches. According to the figure, we have two proportional rectangles and we need to derive an expression that describes the value of the unshaded area.

If we know that A = 648 in², w = 22 - x and h = 40 - x, then the expression is derived below:

A = w · h

(22 - x) · (40 - x) = 648

40 · (22 - x) - x · (22 - x) = 648

880 - 40 · x - 22 · x + x² = 648

x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0

The second order polynomial that involves the variable x (border inside the rectangle) and associated to the unshaded area is x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0. $\blacksquare$
