Answer:
The correct answer is option C. x² - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle = Length * Width
It is given that ,
The length of a side of a rectangle is 2 units less than a number, and the width is 4 units more than the length.
Let 'x' be the number
Length of rectangle = x - 2
Width = Length + 4 = x - 2 + 4 = x + 2
To find the area of rectangle
Area = Length * Width
Area = (x - 2)*(x + 2) = x² - 4
Therefore option C. x² - 4 is the correct answer
