Help me pls I’m so confused

(2u+8)(2u+10) inches^2=4u^2+36u+80 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what the options are. But I'll try to help you anyway. Is that variable for the width of the frame... u? We'll just use u.

So the area of a rectangle is found using length* width. To find the combined area of the mat and the photo, we need the combined length and the combined width.

combined length=u+8+u

(Think of it from the top to the bottom: the top strip has a length of u inches, 8 is given, and the bottom strip is also u inches long.) You can simplify it to get 2u+8 inches.

combined width=u+10+u=2u+10 inches

To find the area, you need to multiply these dimensions.

(2u+8)(2u+10) inches^2

I think this would be your answer for Part B, because it's factored.

I think for Part A, you need to multiply it all out.

=2u(2u+10) + 8(2u+10)

=4u^2+20u + 16u+80

=4u^2+36u+80 inches^2

Hope I could help you!

answer: what is the conflict?

step-by-step explanation:

*what has happened to new york city?

*what is in the time capsule?

* what did the kidz see that gave them hope?

*what will they do with what they find?

* how will they save the city?

* what challenges will they face along the way?

*what big choice will they make at the climax of the story?

* what lesson do they learn at the end of the story?

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

the first term is 6.

the common difference d = ?

when you find d, replace n with 7 and d with the common difference to find your answer.
