Give possible expression for the length and breadth of each of the following rectangle in which their areas are given
Area 25a squ-35a+12
Answers
Answer:
Given area 25a²-35a+12
= 25a²-15a-20a+12
= 5a(5a-3)-4(5a-3)
= (5a-3) (5a-4)
This is the expression for length and breadth of a rectangle
bcz Area = length * breadth
Question:
Given the possible expression for the length and breadth of each of the following rectangle in which their areas are given.
Area 25a² - 35a + 12
Answer
Length of rectangle is (5a - 4) and breadth is (5a - 3)
Explanation
Given the area is 25a² - 35a + 12
The above equation is in the form ax² + bx + c.
We can solve it by splitting the middle term in such a way their sum is b (-35) and the product is ac (25*12).
Now, by splitting the middle term
→ 25a² - 35a + 12
→ 25a² - 20a - 15a + 12
→ 5a(5a - 4) -3(5a - 4)
→ (5a - 4) (5a - 3)
By splitting the given area i.e. 25a² - 35a + 12 we get, (5a - 4)(5a - 3)
According to the question, we have to find the length and breadth of the rectangle.
Now, Area of rectangle = length × breadth
And what we get is (5a - 4)(5a - 3)
So,
Length of rectangle = (5a - 4)
Breadth of rectangle = (5a - 3)
We will take the positive value of a because negative values (of length and breadth) are not possible.
And for the positive value of a: (5a - 4) < (5a - 3)
