Question 936690: area rectangle = 2xx + 7x -15
if one side is represented by x+5, show the expression in x for the other side. Found 3 solutions by stanbon, TimothyLamb, MathTherapy:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! area rectangle = 2xsq + 7x -15 (that is 2x squared)
one side is represented by x+5, Q is show expression in x for the other?
-----
Divide 2x^2+7x-15 by x+5
Using synthetic division get::
-5)....2....7....-15
.......2...-3....|..0
Ans: (2x^2+7x-15) / (x+5) = 2x-3 (other side)
