Answer:

  • x - 5 and 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • Area of rectangle = 2x^2 - 7x - 15

To find

  • Dimensions of rectangle

Solution

Since the area is the product of the sides, let's try to factorize the given:

  • 2x^2 - 7x - 15=
  • 2x^2 - 10x + 3x - 15 =
  • 2x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) =
  • (x - 5)(2x + 3)

So the dimensions are:

  • x - 5 and 2x + 3
