Question

Write each of the relations below in algebra and see if it gives a
polynomial. Also give reasons for your conclusion.
1) Al metre wide path goes around a square ground. The relation
between the length of a side of the ground and the area of the
path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the ground be a.

The width of the path is 1 m.

⇒ Length of one side of the path is a + 2 m.

⇒ Area of the path = (a + 2)2 – (a)2

Now, Area of the path is a is defined p(a)

⇒ p(a) = (a + 2)2 – (a)2

⇒ p(a) = 4 + 4 × a
