Respuesta :

The dimensions of the rectangle will be 4 and 6.

How to solve the value?

From the information given, we are told that the area is given by x² + 2x - 24. We will expand this as follows:

x² + 2x - 24

x² + 6x - 4x - 24

x(x + 6) + 6(x - 4)

x - 4 = 0

x = 0 + 4

Therefore, the other dimension will be:

= 24/4

= 6
