Asquare has sides of length s a rectangle is 6 inches shorter and 1 inch longer than the square which of the following polynomials represents the area of the rectangle

p=4s−10 inches

let's say that the rectangle has sides  a  and  b.

you already know that  a=s−6  and  b=s+1.

the perimeter of a rectangle is

p=2⋅(a+b)=2(s−6+s+1)=4s−10

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

heyyy
