Question 1071444: a) a rectangle has a width of 4x-1 and a length of 6x+3 write an expression for its area by expanding and simplifying ( do not factor the final answer)
b) if the width is increased by two and the length is doubled what would the expression for the new area of the rectangle as an expanded and simplified polynomial ( do not factor the final answer)
