Area is 96 length is 4x+8 width is x find x
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The area would be length times width. x(4x+8) =96

4x^2+8x = 96

4x^2+8x-96=0. We need to factor.

It would be factored to (4x-16)(x+6) = 0

x would be -6 (x+6=0)

or x would be 4 (4x-16=0)

Why would the width be negative?!? So the answer is 4
