<span>x(x−3)=54
x^2 - 3x - 54 = 0
(x - 9)(x +6) = 0
x - 9 = 0 so x= 9
x + 6 = 0 so x = -6
</span><span>
x = 9 (length)
so width = x - 3 = 9 -3 = 6

</span>answer
<span>length = 9

double check
Area = LxW = 9x6 = 54

△DEF is shown below.<br><br>Triangle DEF<br><br>What is m∠DEF?​
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

m∠DEF = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

∠DEG = ∠GEF

3y + 4 = 5y - 10

subtract 4 from both sides

3y = 5y - 14

subtract 5y from both sides

-2y = -14

divide by -2

y = 7

Add 7 into the equations:

3y + 4 + 5y - 10

3(7) + 4 + 5(7) - 10

21 + 4 + 35 - 10

25 + 25

50
