Question

A carpenter wants to place carpet in a bedroom.

Answer 1

Given that the area of the rectangular floor is represented by the expression
`12x^3 + 18x^2 - 24x` and the length of the floor is 6x,

Then the width of the floor is given by dividing 12x^3 + 18x^2 - 24x by 6x.


`12x^3 + 18x^2 - 24x=6x(2x^2+3x-4)`

Therefore, the width of the floor is
`2x^2+3x-4`
