Answer:
Given:
Area of the rectangle = 30 square inches.
length of the sides are whole numbers.
Solution:
The base of the rectangle is x and the height is y
We know that Area of the rectangle = [tex]length \times breadth[/tex]
That is
30 = [tex]x \times y[/tex]
The possible values of length and breadth
length x : 1 2 3 5 6 10 15 30
breath y: 30 15 10 6 5 3 2 1
Now
30 = xy
[tex]y = \frac{30}{x}[/tex]
when y increases x decreases and vice versa
