Step-by-step explanation:
area of rectangle=length×breadth=(2x+3)(3x+7)
=6x²+9x+14x+21=6x²+23x+21
Assuming the square is not a typo, one can write

What we know:
Mrs Lemke has a total of 10 2/3 oz of fertilizer
3/4 oz fertilizer per plant
What we need to find is left over fertilizer after equally distributing as much 3/4 oz of fertilizer per plant.
10 2/3 oz must be divided into groups of 3/4 oz
Those groups will show how many plants can be fertilized with each receiving 3/4 oz of fertilizer and the remainder will be the left over fertilizer in ounces we need to find.
First we must change 10 2/3 into an improper fraction of 32/3.
Now, we divide 32/3 by 3/4.
(32/3)/(3/4)=(32/3)x(4/3)
(32x4)/(3x3)=128/9
128/9 equals to 14 with a remainder of 2/9
That means Mrs Lemke can fertilize 14 plants with 3/4 oz of fertilizer each and have left over of 2/9 ounces.
Your answer is the remainder which is 2/9 ounces.
The answer is absolute value
you can tell bc of the shape, they will always have linear lines with a meeting point
