Chapter 8.4, Problem 24MCQ

To determine

To find:the polynomial for the area of birdhouse as a square base.

Answer to Problem 24MCQ

The polynomial as area base in standard formis $9x^2-24x+16$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The length of square baseis $3x-4$ .

Calculation:

The polynomial for the area of square base is calculated as follows:

  $\begin{array}{c}A={\left(\text{Side}\right)}^2\\ ={\left(3x-4\right)}^2\\ ={\left(3x\right)}^2-2\times 3x\times 4+4^2\\ =9x^2-24x+16\end{array}$

Thus, the polynomial as area base in standard formis $9x^2-24x+16$ .
