A computer hardware engineer is designing a rectangular silicon microchip. The total surface area of the microchip, in square millimeters, is represented by the expression . A square sensor is embedded in the center of the chip, occupying an area represented by the expression square millimeters. Which of the following expressions represents the remaining surface area of the microchip, in square millimeters, that is not occupied by the sensor?
- A
- B
- Cevap
- D
- E
Cevap
The correct expression is .
To find the remaining surface area of the microchip, subtract the area of the sensor from the total area. First, expand the expression for the total area: . Next, expand the expression for the sensor area: . Subtract the sensor area from the total area, distributing the negative sign to all terms: . Combining like terms yields the expression .
