The rectangle below has an area of c^2-4x-12 square meters and a length of x+2 meters what expression represents the width of the rectangle

Width =

Step-by-step explanation:

All we have to do is to use the method of changing the subject. First we know that length * width is equal to area.

Area = length * width

We have the area and the length but we don't have the width. So we substitute the values we have int the equation and make the width (w) the subject.

(c^2 - 4x - 12) = (x + 2) * w

(c^2 - 4x - 12) = w(x +2)

Divide both sides by (x+2) so w can stand alone.

w =
