I need help on question 25

Answer 1

Answer:

   area = 14x^2 -6x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the shaded region is the product of dimensions of the large rectangle less the product of dimensions of the smaller (unshaded) rectangle.

  area = (5x+2)(3x-1) -(x)(x+7)

  = 15x^2 +6x -5x -2 -x^2 -7x . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  = 14x^2 -6x -2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of the shaded region is given by $14x^2-6x-2$.

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded region is the big rectangle minus the smaller, inner one.

The area of any rectangle is its base multiplied by its height.

The area of the big rectangle is (5x+2)(3x-1), and the area of the small one is x(x+7). So the area of the shaded region is (5x+2)(3x-1)-x(x+7), computing the algebra:

$(5x+2)(3x-1)-x(x+7)= (15x^2+6x-5x-2)-(x^2+7x)=15x^2+x-2-x^2-7x=14x^2-6x-2$.
