A rectangle has an area of x3 + 5x2 + 5x – 2 square meters and a width of x + 2 meters. Find its length.

Ax2 + 5x – 4 meters
Bx2 +3x – 1 meters
Cx2 + 7x – 9 meters
Dx2 + 3x + 1 meters

Verified Answer :

The solution to the problem is as follows:

A = l * w 

l = A/w 

= (x^3 + 5x^2 + 5x - 2) / (x + 2) 


= [(x^2 + 3x - 1)(x + 2)] / (x + 2) 


= x^2 + 3x - 1

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Answer:

\(x^{2}+3x-1 meters\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Area of rectangle : \(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2\)

            Width : \(x+2\)

To Find : Length

Solution :

Formula of area of rectangle : \(Length \times Width\)

Substituting the given values in formula to calculate Length.

\(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2=Length \times (x+2)\)

\(\frac{x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2}{x+2} = Length\) ---(A)

Solving this equation using Formula :

Dividend = (Divisor * Quotient) +Remainder

Since dividend is \(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2\)

Divisor is  \(x+2\)

Thus ,

⇒ \(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2=[(x+2)*x^{2}] +(3x^{2} +5x-2)\)

⇒ \(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2=[(x+2)*(x^{2}+3x)] +(-x-2)\)

⇒\(x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2=[(x+2)*(x^{2}+3x-1)] +0\)

Thus the quotient is \(x^{2}+3x-1\)

So, A becomes

\(\frac{x^{3} +5x^{2} +5x-2}{x+2} = Length\)

\(x^{2}+3x-1 = Length\)

Hence Length of Rectangle is  \(x^{2}+3x-1 meters\)
