After the fraction x plus 2 all over 3 minus the fraction x plus 1 all over 2x have been combined using the least common denominator of 6x, what is the numerator? (6 points) Select one: a. 2x2 + x − 3 b. 2x2 + x − 1 c. −2x2 + x + 6 d. −x2 + 2x + 6

Based on the situation in part a, the width of a rectangular garden is x feet, and its length is 5 feet more than twice its width. the right side of the equation, g(x) = 2x2 − 13x + 6, can be factored to g(x) = (2x − 1)(x − 6). this function could represent an inner region of the garden from the first equation, such as a vegetable garden with a border around it. the length of this inner garden would be 2x − 1 feet, and the width would be x − 6, which would leave a 3-foot border around the garden. part d what is the value of g(8) for the function g(x) in part c? what does this value mean in the context of the situation you described in part c?
