Arectangular painting has an area of (2x^2 + 8x + 6) cm^2 . its length is (2x + 2) cm. find the width of the painting.

Width = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is:  A = LW, where A=area, L = length and W = width.  In order to get the expression for the value of the width, you first need to factor each equation given for both the area and the length.  Starting with the length (2x + 2), you can factor out the 2 to get: 2(x+1).  With the area: 2x² + 8x + 6, you can first factor out the 2 to get:  2(x² + 4x + 3).  Next, you can factor the polynomial: 2(x + 3)(x + 1).  Lastly, in order to find the width, you divide the area by the length:

Crossing out the common terms from the numerator and denominator, '2' and '(x + 1)', we get a final answer of W = x + 3.

c.

step-by-step explanation:

she should of added 9^2 and 12^2. that is because it is a^2+b^2=c^2. c^2 is the hypotenuse and should always be bigger than the other two numbers. which is why she should of added 9 squared and 12 squared together instead of 15 squared.

y= 2x+7

changed to y= 5x +7

as slope is increased from 2 to 5

therefore it would be less steeper

so, option d) is correct
