If the area of a rectangle is

(15x^2 - 16x - 15) square feet,

and its length is (3x - 5) feet,

find its width.


Sagot :

Answer:

Width = 5x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

15x² - 16x - 15  =  15x² - 25x +  9x  - 3 *5

                       = 5x(3x - 5) + 3(3x - 5)

                      = (3x - 5)(5x + 3)    

Width = [tex]\frac{Area}{length}[/tex]

          [tex]= \frac{15x^{2}-16x - 15}{(3x-5)}\\\\=\frac{(3x-5)(5x+3))}{(3x-5)}\\\\=5x + 3[/tex]
