Question

The area of a rectangle is 4w-10 square units. Factor this expression. Given your answer in part A, describe what you can conclude about the dimensions of the rectangle in two or more complete sentences.

Answer 1

The factored area of the rectangle=2(2w-5)

Area of a rectangle=length×width

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle is 4w - 10 square units

We have to factor the expression

Area of rectangle = 4w - 10

common factor=2

Area of rectangle = 2(2w - 5)

Thus the given expression is factored

Area of a rectangle=length × width

Area of the rectangle=2×(2w-5)

Thus, it is safe to say

The length=2 or (2w-5)

The width=(2w-5) or 2

Answer 2

Answer:

length is 2 or 2w-5, and the width is 2w-5 or 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

common factor: 2

divide both by 2

4w/2=2w

10/2=5

(2w-5)

multiply by 2

2(2w-5)

the area of rectangle is l*w

the area of rectangle is 2(2w-5)

I can conclude that the length is 2 or 2w-5, and the width is 2w-5 or 2.
