Question

The area of a rectangular painting is given by the trinomial x^2+2x-15. What are the possible dimensions of the painting? Use factoring.

( x + 5 ) and ( x - 3 )
( x + 5 ) and ( x + 3 )
( x - 5 ) and ( x - 3 )
( x - 5 ) and ( x + 3 )

since there is a -15 at the end and a +2x in the center, you want two factors of 15 which differ by 2. Those are 5 and 3. Now, you want one + and one -, so +5-3 = +2

(x+5)(x-3) = x^2+2x-15
