Agroup of students are planning a mural at a wall the rectangular wall has dimensions of (6x+7) by (8x+5) and they are planning the mural to be (x+4) by(2x+5) what is the area of the remaining wall after the mural has been painted

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with the formula:

l: the length of the rectangle.

w: the width of the rectangle.

The area of the remaning wall after the mural has been painted, will be the difference of the area of the wall and the area of the mural.

Knowing that the dimensions of the wall are by , its area is:

As they are planning that the dimensions of the mural be by , its area is:

Then the area of the remaining wall after the mural has been painted is:

3. parallelogram

step-by-step explanation:

we turn each of our sides into direction vectors

ab=b-a=(3 - 7, 1 - 0) = (-4, 1)

bc=c-b=(1,6)

cd=d-c=(4,-1)

da=a-d=(-1,-6)

we see how the opposite sides have negated direction vectors; this is characteristic of a parallelogram.   we have congruent sides ab=cd and bc=da with unequal lengths because 1^2+6^2 is different from (-4)^2+1^2.   so it's not a square or a rhombus.  

we check the dot product of direction vectors of adjacent sides.   we have

ab dot bc = -4(1) + 1(6) = 2

that's not zero so the sides are not perpendicular.   we've ruled out rectangle.

the direction vectors indicate two pairs of congruent parallel sides, so we choose parallelogram over trapezoid.
