To find the possible dimensions of the painting, we need to factor the trinomial x^2 + 2x - 15.
x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15
x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5)
(x - 3)(x + 5)
So, the possible dimensions of the painting are x - 3 and x + 5.
Therefore, the possible dimensions of the painting are 3 units by 5 units.
The area of a rectangular painting is given by the trinomial x2 + 2x – 15. What are the possible dimensions of the painting? Use factoring.%0D%0A(1 point)
