The side lengths of the rectangle are (x - 2) and (x + 5)
The area of a shape is the amount of space on the shape
The area of the rectangle is given as;
[tex]Area = x^2 + 3x - 10[/tex]
Expand the expression
[tex]Area = x^2 + 5x - 2x - 10[/tex]
Factorize the expression
[tex]Area = x(x + 5) - 2(x + 5)[/tex]
Factor out x + 5
[tex]Area = (x - 2)(x + 5)[/tex]
Hence, the side lengths of the rectangle are (x - 2) and (x + 5)
