Answer:

C. 20x² + 4x - 16  

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is

A  = lw = (5x + 4)(4x - 4) = (20x² + 4x - 16) ft²

The area of the floor plan is given by the expression 20x² - 4x - 16

A rectangle is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) in which opposite sides are parallel and equal to each other. Also all the angles of a rectangle measure 90 degrees each.

Area of a rectangle = length * breadth

Area of the floor plan = length * breadth

Area of the floor plan = (5x + 4) * (4x - 4)

Area of the floor plan = 20x² - 20x + 16x - 16

Area of the floor plan = 20x² - 4x - 16

The area of the floor plan is given by the expression 20x² - 4x - 16.
