<PRE><B>Question 505953</B>
The area of a rectangular athletic field is represented by the expression 48x^4+32x^3-72x square meters. Write an algebraic expression to represent one possible set of dimensions (in the sense “length times width”) of the athletic field. Include correct units with your solution.
-------------------------
48x^4+32x^3-72x square meters
common factor: 8x
---
= 8x(6x^3 + 4x^2 - 9)
----
one dimension: 8x meters
other dimension: 6x^3+4x^2-9 meters
