Question 345078: Find a polynomial for the perimeter and for the area.
z+2 is the width on the top of the box
z is the right side of the box.
The perimeter is
The area is Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Usually we talk about rectangles having length (shown as 'l') and width (shown as 'w'), so the P = 2l + 2w.
You have the values to substitute for 'l' and 'w'
Collecting terms, we have
The area is found much the same way.
We know the area (A) of a rectangle = length times width = l * w.
Substituting what we know about l and w, we have:
Done.
