Answer:
ok so if we take length to be x we know width is x-3
the perimeter is the total length of sides, if you look at a rectangle you can see it has 4 sides with 2 length and 2 width. so perimeter is 2 times (x + x-3) = 26.
2x -3 = 13, 2x = 16, x = 8, 8 is length
the width is then 8-3 = 5.
Length = 8, width = 5.
I think is B
I think is B
The product of the factors (5x − 8) and (5x + 8) is 25x² − 64. Then the correct option is C.
<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>
Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.
One factor of the polynomial is given which is 5x − 8.
Then the polynomial will be
Let the other factor be 5x + 8
Then their product will be
(5x − 8)(5x + 8)
(5x)² − 8²
25x² − 64
