Question

Jonestown High School has a soccer field whose dimensions can be expressed as 7y² and 3xy. What is the area of this field in terms of x and y?

Since the area of the soccer ?eld would be found through the formula A = length × width, multiply the dimensions together:  7y² × 3xy. Use the commutative property to arrange such as variables and the coef?cients next to each other: 7 × 3 × x × y² × y. Multiply: remember that y² × y = y² × y¹ = y²+1 = y³. The answer is 21xy³.
