Algebra Tiles
If X is the length of the side of the square, and 1 is the width of the bar, these tiles represent (X + 3) (X + 2) = X2 + 5X + 6. What is X if X2 + 5X + 6 = 42?What other values of the equation, besides 42, will give a whole number value for X?
What other values of the equation will give a negative number value for X?
