Question

Averi was trying to factor 4x2 + 20x - 16. She found

Answer 1

Answer:

The width will be $x^{2} +5x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking process:

Let the model be:

$4x^{2} +20x-16$

factoring out 4 gives:

$4(x^{2} +5x-4)$

Factorizing the expression in the parentheses gives:

$4(x^{2} +5x-4)$

Therefore, since the expression in the parentheses cannot be factorized further, the expression is:

$length = 4 units\\width = x^{2} +5x-4$
