A builder uses parallelogram-shaped stones as decoration around a building’s windows. The stones come in many different sizes. Each stone has a base length of x inches and a height of (4x − 2) inches. Write a polynomial to describe the area of a stone. Then find the area of a stone that has a length of 8 inches.

Respuesta :

A= x(4x-2) then distribute the x to get A=4x²-2x

Then plug in the 8 and get A=4(8)²-2(8)
A=256-16
A=240
