Question

The area of a rectangle is represented by 30x²+5y. If the width is 5y, what is the length?​ ( We are doing factoring)

Answer 1

(6x² + y)/y or 6x²/y + 1

Explanation:

The area, 30x² + 5y, equals the length, the variable L, times the width, 5y

30x² + 5y = (Z)(5y)

Switch sides:

(L)(5y) = 30x² + 5y

To solve for L, we divide both sides by 5y.

L = (30x² + 5y)/(5y)

L = (6x² + y)/y

L = 6x²/y + 1
