The rectangle below has an area of x^2-11x+30 sq meters and a length of x-5 meters.

What expression represents the width of the rectangle?

Respuesta :

Answer ( X-6)

(X-5)(x-6)
X times X and X times -6 - and -5 times X and -5 times -6
X^2-6x-5x +30
as before, area = length x width

width = area / length = (x^2-11x+30) / (x-5); factoring

= (x-6)(x-5) / (x-5)

= x - 6 meters
