The diagram shows the floor plan of a storage facility. All dimensions are given in feet. Which expression represents the area of the storage facility in square feet?

A. 16x^2-16

B. 20x^2+36x-16

C. 20x^2-4x-16

D. 9x^2-16

Please help, thank you

The area of the floor plan is given by the expression 20x² - 4x - 16

A rectangle is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) in which opposite sides are parallel and equal to each other. Also all the angles of a rectangle measure 90 degrees each.

Area of a rectangle = length * breadth

Area of the floor plan = length * breadth

Area of the floor plan = (5x + 4) * (4x - 4)

Area of the floor plan = 20x² - 20x + 16x - 16

Area of the floor plan = 20x² - 4x - 16

The area of the floor plan is given by the expression 20x² - 4x - 16.

C. 20x² + 4x - 16  

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is

A  = lw = (5x + 4)(4x - 4) = (20x² + 4x - 16) ft²

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
