What does x(x - 6) represent?
thats my first question ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x(x-6) represents the no of apartments in building..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=no of floors
x-6=no of aprtments in each floor..
so
x(x-6)=total no of aprtments in x floors.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What type of polynomial is x(x - 6)(x - 7)
second question ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
total no of rooms in buliding.
