Bojangles has a rectangular shaped roof with a width of 6x2 feet and a length 12x3. what is the area of the roof?

432 square feet

or 72*x^5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's remember that the formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L*W, where L is the length and W the width.

In this case, L = 12*3 feet and W = 6*2 feet.

With this information,

A = 12*3 feet * 6*2 feet = 432 square feet

A = 432 square feet

But what you wrote can also be interpreted as L = 12*x^3 feet and W = 6*x^2 feet.

In that case, A = 12*x^3 feet * 6*x^2 feet = 72*x^5 square feet

the correct answer is d

hope this
