A rectangle has dimensions 2x – 12 by 3x + 9 and area 60 cm². What are the actual
dimensions of the rectangle?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2 x 30   cm

Step-by-step explanation:

L x W = 60

(2x-12)(3x+9) = 60

 6x^2 -18x-168=0

use quadratic fromula to find   x = 7   or -4 (throw out)

the sides then become   ( using 7)    

 2   and 30   cm
