Question

Write a polynomial that represents the area of the above football field.

Answer 1

36x² + 24x + 300 ft²

Explanation:

→ Area of rectangle = Length × Width

→ Area of rectangle = (12x + 8) ft × (3x + 15) ft

→ Area of rectangle = 12x(3x + 15) + 8(3x + 15) ft²

→ Area of rectangle = 36x² + 180 + 24x + 120 ft²

→ Area of rectangle = 36x² + 24x + 300 ft²
