A rectangle has a length that is two units shorter than its width. write and simplify an expression to represent the area of the rectangle

2x + x ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle

= LENGTH * WIDTH

= l * w.

But lets assume our given Length as "x"

Let's assume the width as 2 + x.

(If the length is 2 units shorter than the width, it means the width is 2 units more than the length)

Area (A) = length * width

A = x * (2+x)

Expand / open the bracket

A = 2x + x^2

That's a simplified expression that represents the area of the Rectangle.

Math is fun
