Sagot :

Answer:

Step (2) is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = length × width

Area = 8+12x

Width = 4

Step 1: 8 + 12x  

Step 2: 4(2) + 4(3x)  

Step 3: 4(2 + 3x)  

Step 4: Dimensions of the rectangle are 4 and 2 + 3x.

It means he has done a mistake in step (2). The correct step should be 4(2) + 4(3x).
