The area of a rectangular porch is (9x + 18) square units. Factor 9x + 18 to find the possible dimensions of the porch. Length = Width =

To factor 9x + 18 you need to find a common factor that goes into both terms. In this case, both terms can be divided by 9, which means 9 goes on the outside of the bracket. Now, we just put whatever 9 needs to be multiplied by to get 9x and 18 inside the bracket, so your finished result is 9(x + 2). This means that the length can be 9 and the width can be x + 2, as the multiply together to get 9x + 18.
I hope this helps!

The possible dimension of the porch is Length = 9 and Width = x + 2

The area of the rectangular porch is given as:

[tex]Area = 9x +18[/tex]

Factor out 9, in the above expression

[tex]Area = 9(x +2)[/tex]

Express as products

[tex]Area = 9 * (x +2)[/tex]

The area of a rectangle is calculated as:

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

By comparing both equations, we have:

Length = 9

Width = x + 2

Hence, the possible dimension of the porch is Length = 9 and Width = x + 2
