Question

Rectangle w/area of 91 has dimensions of (x+2) and (2x+3). Solve for dimensions.

Answer 1

Answer:

5unit

Step-by-step explanation: since area of rectangle = length*width

Here length is (x+2) and width is(2x+3)

(x+2)(2x+3)=91

On further solving

2x^2+75x-85=0

2x^2-10x+17x-85=0

2x(x-5)+17(x-5)=0

(2x+17)(x-5)=0

x=5unit
