Question

The area of a rectangle is 4y+10.A.Represent the area of the rectangle in factored form.B.Use the factored form to give one possible set of dimensions for this rectangle

Answer 1

2 ( 2y + 5 )

Explanation:

→ Take out 2 as a factor

2 ( 2y + 5 )

Answer 2

• A = 2(2y + 5)
• 2 and 11 (when y = 3)

Explanation:

The area equation is:

• A = lw

Given:

• A = 4y + 10

This can be factored as:

• A = 2(2y + 5)

Let y = 3, then the dimensions are:

• 2 and
• 2*3 + 5 = 11
