Question

The rectangle below has an area of x^2-15x+56x square meters and a length of x-7 meters.

Answer 1

$Heya \: \: ! \\ \\ \\ Area \: of \: rectangle \: = Length \: \times Width \\ \\ We \: are \: given \: that \: , \\ \\ Length \: = \: \: ( \: x - 7 \: ) \: metres \\ Area \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: \: ( \: {x}^{2} - 15x + 56 \: ) \: square \: meters \\ \\ Therefore \: \: , \: \\ {x}^{2} - 15x + 56 = ( \: x - 7) \times Width \\ \\ Width = \frac{ ({x}^{2} - 15x + 56 )}{(x - 7)} \\ \\ Width = \frac{(x - 7)(x - 8)}{(x - 7)} \\ \\ \\ Width = ( \: x - 8 \: ) \: \: m \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: Ans.$
