The two sides of the rectangle will be (x - 6) and (x - 2).
What is a factorization?
It is a method for dividing a polynomial into pieces that will be multiplied together. At this moment, the polynomial's value will be zero.
Sarah has a large square piece of foam for an art project.
The side lengths of the square are x in.
To fit her project, Sarah cuts a section of foam from two of the sies so now she has a rectangle.
The area of the rectangle given by the expression will be
⇒ x² - 8x + 12
Factorize the expression, then we have
⇒ x² - 6x - 2x + 12
⇒ x(x - 6) - 2(x - 6)
⇒ (x - 2)(x - 6)
Then the two sides of the rectangle will be (x - 6) and (x - 2).
