A manufacturer produces blankets of different sizes.
The length of the blankets is given by the function l(x)= 2x+5 and the width is given by the function w(x)=4.
What is the function that represents the area that is covered by the blanket?
:
The area of the blanket (length * width)
f(a) = (2x+5)*4
f(a) = 8x + 20 is the function representing the area of the blanket
