Question

Please help!! Its timed!!!

Answer 1

Answer: B. g-6

Explanation:

The area of a garden is assumed to be rectangular so:

Area= length x width.

Given: length = g+4

they gave you also and equation: g²-2g-24

Solution:

You need to find something that multiplies to the length and that will be your width.

if you factro the trinomial that will be your width

To factor:

Find to numbers that multiply to the last number (-24) and add to middle number (-2)

-6 and +4 multiply to -24 and add to -2

Put -6 and +4 into factored form

(g-6)(g+4) Since g+4 is length

g-6 must be width.

B

Answer 2

g-6

Explanation:

If you factor the trinomial, you get (g+4)(g-6).

The length is g+4, so the width must be g-6.

Hope this helps!
