What is the width of Yun's area model?

Respuesta :

the width of Yun's area model is 7x units or ( x-2 )units .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have , Yun was trying to factor 7x^2-14x.  He found that the greatest common factor of these terms was 7x and made an area model:  What is the width of Yun's area model. Let's find out:

We know that area of rectangle :

⇒ [tex]Area = length(width)[/tex]  .........(1)

Now , According to question we have

⇒ [tex]Area = 7x^2-14x[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Area = 7x(x-2)[/tex]

Comparing this equation to equation (1) we get that :

⇒ [tex]width = 7x[/tex] or , [tex]width =x -2[/tex]

Therefore , the width of Yun's area model is 7x units or ( x-2 )units .

49x
