Which polynomial represents the area of the rectangle? 3x-5= x+1

3x² - 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is simply length * width.  Thus, simply multiply them, and FOIL.

(3x - 5) (x + 1)

3x ^2 + 3x - 5x - 5

Combine like terms

3x² - 2x - 5

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
