Answer:

The correct statement is option (B)

The width of the rectangle is K+4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area of a rectangle is

K²+19k+60

=k²+15k+4k+60

=k(k+15)+4(k+15)

=(k+15)(k+4)

We know that the area of rectangle is = length ×width

Therefore

K²+19k+60 =length ×width

⇒(k+15)(k+4)=length ×width

∴Length =(k+15) inches and width = (k+4)inches

Therefore the length of the rectangle is (k+15)inches and width is (k+4) inches

Answer:

B.) The width of the rectangle is k+4 inches
