A rectangle has a length 2x+1 and width x+3.

Write an expression that shows the area of

the rectangle. Be sure to simplify your

ansver.

3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the area we do length times width so to find the area of this rectangle we do 2x + 1 * x + 3

for this equation we have an order of operations problem we have to multiply 1 * x first so the answer becomes 3x + 3 because after the order of operstions the equation becomes 2x + 1x + 3

we then combine like terms / the x's

2x + 1x = 3x

then add 3

3x + 3
