1 answer:
You might be interested in
The area of the shaded region can be found by subtracting the area of the inside rectangle from the outside rectangle
area of outside: 6 X 10y —> 60y
area of inside: 3 X 5x —> 15x
so the area of the shaded region is 60y-15x
the GCF is 15, so the factored form is: 15(4y-x)
area of outside: 6 X 10y —> 60y
area of inside: 3 X 5x —> 15x
so the area of the shaded region is 60y-15x
the GCF is 15, so the factored form is: 15(4y-x)
ANSWER
a=-2, b=3
EXPLANATION
The given equation is
Recall that:
We simplify the left hand side to get:
For this equation to be true, we must have:
-6a=12 and 2+b=5
This implies that,
a=-2 and b=3
