5. Which of the following represents the area of a rectangle whose length is 5x - 3 and whose width is x + 7? (1 point)
O
5x2 - 21
O 5x2 + 9x - 21
5x2 + 32x – 21
O. 5x2 – 32x - 21

Respuesta :

Answer:

the following is 5x^2 + 32x - 21

(5x - 3)(x + 7)

5x^2 + 35x - 3x - 21

5x^2 + 32x - 21

The area of the rectangle = [tex]5 x^{2}+32 x-21[/tex].

What is the area of the rectangle?

Area of the rectangle = Length [tex]*[/tex] Width

where L is the length of the rectangle

W be the width of the rectangle

In this problem we have

Length = (5x - 3) units

Width = (x + 7) units

Substitute the values of length and width in the formula to find the area of the rectangle

Area of the rectangle = Length [tex]*[/tex] Width

Area of the rectangle = (5x - 3)(x + 7)

A = (5x - 3)(x + 7)

Multiplying the parenthesis, then we get

A = 5x [tex]*[/tex] x + 5x [tex]*[/tex] 7 - 3x - 3 [tex]*[/tex] 7

Simplifying the above equation, we get

[tex]${data-answer}amp;A=5 x^{2}+35 x-3 x-21 \\[/tex]

[tex]${data-answer}amp;A=5 x^{2}+32 x-21[/tex]

The area of the rectangle = [tex]5 x^{2}+32 x-21[/tex].

Therefore, the correct answer is option C. [tex]5 x^{2}+32 x-21[/tex].
