Answer:
2x-4
Explanation:
Area of a rectangle = Length * Width
Given parameters
Area A = 8x2 – 10x – 12
Length of the rectangle = 4x+3
Required
Width of the rectangle.
Substituting the given parameters into the formula
8x2 – 10x – 12 = (4x+3)*width
width = 8x2 – 10x – 12 /4x+3
S
Factorizing the numerator
8x² – 10x – 12
= 2(4x²-5x-6)
= 2(4x²-8x+3x-6)
= 2(4x(x-2)+3(x-2))
= 2(4x+3)(x-2)
Width = 2(4x+3)(x-2)/4x+3
Width = 2(x-2)
Width = 2x-4
Hence the width of the rectangle is 2x-4
