To find the possible dimensions of the rectangle, we need to factor the given trinomial x^2 + 6x - 27.
The factored form of the trinomial is:
(x - 3)(x + 9)
So, the possible dimensions of the rectangle are:
(x - 3) and (x + 9)
The correct option is:
b) (x + 9) and (x - 3)
The factored form of the trinomial is:
(x - 3)(x + 9)
So, the possible dimensions of the rectangle are:
(x - 3) and (x + 9)
The correct option is:
b) (x + 9) and (x - 3)
