<u>Answer:</u>
<h3>(
) x (
) </h3>
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To find the area of a rectangle, we have to multiply the length with the width.
In the question, the given length is 'x' and the width given is 'x +7'
So, the area would be
( ) x ( )
The area =
So, the equation to find the area of such a rectangle would be:-
( ) x ( )
Flour: 2 3/4 cups = 11/4
11/4 * 2 = 22/4 = 5 2/4 cups
Sugar: 1 1/2 cups = 3/2
3/2 = 6/4 = 1 2/4 cups
1 2/4 * 2 = 3 cups
So it *should* be 8 1/2 cups.
(x -2)(x - 3)
x(x - 3) - 2(x - 3)
x^2 - 3x - 2x + 6
x^2 - 5x + 6 <===
