A builder uses parallelogram-shaped stones as decoration around a building’s windows. The stones come in many different sizes. Each stone has a base length of x inches and a height of (3x − 2) inches. Write a polynomial to describe the area of a stone. Then find the area of a stone that has a length of 8 inches.
ANSWER CHOICES!
A. 3x ^2 − 2x; Area = 22 in.
B. 3x ^2 − 2; Area = 190 in^2
C. 3x ^2 − 2x; Area = 176 in^2
D. 3x ^2 − 2; Area = 176 in^2

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the polynomial that describes the area of the stones, multiply 3x-2 by x using distribution.  You should get 3x ^2 − 2x.  Then insert 8 where x is and use the order of operations to solve.

3(8)^2 - 2(8)

3(64) - 2(8)

192 - 16

176 in^2
