Tamir wants to build a square wooden stage. His original pin for a stage x feet long and x feet wide had to be made smaller to fit the space. The stage
needs to be 5 feet narrower and 3 feet shorter than his original plan. Which
multiplication problem represents this situation? What is the area of the
smaller stage?

b .  

Area=(x-5) (x-3)

Area =  x^2 -8x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:  

Area of a rectangle = width x length

The original length and width was x, so if the stage needs to be 5 feet narrower and 3 feet shorter.

x-5

x-5

The formula is:

A=(x-5) (x-3)

Solving:

A = (x.x) + (x.-3) + (-5.x)+ (-5.-3)

A = x^2 -3x -5x+15

A = x^2 -8x+15

4x and 6y

im not sure though

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
