What expression represents the width of the rectangle?
2 - 5
Width
22 – 110 + 30
Width
meters​

Answer 1

Answer: The width is x-6

Explanation:

To find the with factor out the area x^2 - 11x + 30

`x^(2)` - 11x +30 to factor it find two numbers that multiply to get 30 and add up to get -11 . And that two numbers are -6 and -5 .

`x^(2)` - 5x - 6x + 30 now group them

(
`x^(2)` - 5x) (-6x+ 30) factor them out.

x(x - 5) - 6(x -5) Factor x-5 out

(x-5)(x-6) since the length is x-5 then the width is x-6.
