The area of a rectangle is 4y + 10.

A. Represent the area of the rectangle in factored form.

B. Use the factored form to give one possible set of dimensions for this rectangle.

The A and B are instructions.

Answer: 2 (2y+5)

Explanation:

One possible factorization is 2 (2y+5) = 4y+10, which would correspond to a set of dimensions 2 by (2y+5) for the rectangle.

Note that this is only one of many possibilities to come up with the dimensions. For example another possibility would be 1 * (4y+10), or 4 * (y+2.5). In fact, in Real numbers, there are infinitely many possible rectangles with a particular area.
