Answer:
A straight line through the origin, and with a positive gradient (sloping from bottom left to top right)
Answer:
(x + 6)(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 2x - 24
(x + 6)(x - 4)
-4 and +6 multiply to 24 and add to +2.
Let x = the length of the shorter piece
x+x+16=50in
2x=50-16
2x=34
x=17
Then
x+16=17+16
x+16=33
Subtract 16 from both sides
The lengths are 17in and 33in
