The area of a rectangle in square units is represented by the expression x^2 + 10x + 16.
Which expressions represent the length and the width of the rectangle in units?
Select TWO correct
(x + 1)
(x + 2)
(x + 4)
(x + 8)
(x + 10)
(x + 16)
The area of a rectangle is usually represented by multiplying the length by the width. In this case, the expression given is x^2 + 10x + 16. We can factor this expression as (x + 2)(x + 8), which means the length and width of the rectangle are (x + 2) and (x + 8), respectively.
Therefore, the correct expressions are:
(x + 2)
(x + 8)
