Question

What is the area of a square that has a length of x-5?

Answer 1

Answer:

x^2 - 10x + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-5) (x-5)

= x^2-10x+25

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Formula for the area of a square:}$

• $A=s^2$ $(\text{"S" represents the side length} )$

$\text{Given}$:

• $\text{The side length is x - 5, so we can plug that into the equation}$

$\text{Solving}$:

• $A=s^2$
• $A=(x-5)^2$

• $A=x^2-10x+25$
