the width of a square whose side is x cm, is increased by 5 cm and its length is decreased by 4 cm. How varies the area of the rectangle formed regarding side x of the original square?

 

Hello to you both :)

 

Omi, Where did the 400 come from?

 

Old area = x^2

 

New area = \((x+5)(x-4) = x^2+x-20\)

 

So the area has increased by x-20 units squared.

 

Of course, if x-20 is negative then the area will be smaller.  :)

Hola a los dos :)

Omi, de dónde vino el 400 viene?

Área de Old = x ^ 2

Nueva área =\((x+5)(x-4) = x^2+x-20\)

Así que la zona se ha incrementado en x-20 unidades al cuadrado.

Por supuesto, si x-20 es negativa entonces el área será más pequeña. :)

Omi has assumed that both figures have the same area....that's not expressly stated in the problem, but it might be true..........if not.......Melody's answer is the more general one.......
