The area of a rectangular garden is given by the trinomial . What are the possible dimensions of the rectangle? Use factoring.
d
Given the trinomial \(d\) representing the area of the rectangular garden, we want to find the possible dimensions of the rectangle.
Let's factor the trinomial \(d\) to find the possible dimensions.
\(d = x^2 - 15x + 56\)
Now, we need to factor the trinomial:
\(d = (x - 7)(x - 8)\)
This gives us the factors of the trinomial, which represent the possible dimensions of the rectangle. Therefore, the possible dimensions of the rectangle are \(x - 7\) and \(x - 8\).
