The rectangle below has an area of x2 - 6x - 7 square

meters and a width of x - 7 meters.

What expression represents the length of the rectangle?

Length

x - 7

x² - 6x - 7

The length is (x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the area equals length times width. LxW=Area We know the width equals (x-7). We also know the area equals x² - 6x - 7. We need to expand the area. When we do, we get (x+1) (x-7). The width is (x-7), so the length must be (x+1).
