Question

Factor the trinomial to find the dimensions of the rectangle below.

  1. (5x + 3) by (x + 2)
  2. (5x + 2) by (x + 3)
  3. (x + 4) by (5x + 1)
  4. (x + 5) by (5x + 6)

The correct answer is: (5x + 2) by (x + 3)


    5x2 + 17x + 6
    a = 5, b = 17, c = 6
    ac = 5×6 = 30
    Factors of 30 are 15 and 2.
    5x2 + 15x + 2x + 6 = 5x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3) = (5x + 2)(x + 3)
