Question 936690

area rectangle = 2xx + 7x -15
if one side is represented by x+5, show the expression in x for the other side.
<pre>
{{{(2x^2 + 7x - 15)/(x + 5)}}}
{{{((2x - 3)(x + 5))/(x + 5)}}} ------ Factoring numerator
{{{((2x - 3)cross((x + 5)))/cross((x + 5))}}} ------ Cancelling
Other side: {{{highlight_green(2x - 3)}}}
