a rectangle has an area that is represented by 9x²-4. the length of the rectangle is 3x-2. what is the width?

Step-by-step explanation:

the area is

length × width

(3x - 2) × width = 9x² - 4

to find width we could do a real polynomial division or simply recognize the fact that

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

and we see that in our area calculation we are missing the (a + b) factor.

so, width = (3x + 2)

but if you want the division :

9x² - 4 : 3x - 2 = 3x + 2

- 9x² - 6x

-----------------

0 6x - 4

- 6x - 4

----------------------

0 0

again, width = (3x + 2)
