Write a simplified polynomial expression in standard form to represent the area of the rectangle below. (2 points) A picture of a rectangle is shown with one side labeled as 5 x plus 2 and another side labeled as x minus 4.

5x2 + 18x − 2
5x2 + 13x + 2
5x2 − 18x − 8
5x2 + 13x + 8

m1=5,m2=0

compare the two slopes in the decimal form. if the slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel. if the slopes are not equal, then the lines are not parallel.
