144=(x+7)^2  take the square root of both sides...

12=x+7  subtract 7 from both sides...

x=5

So the original was a 5m square.

...

255=WL and you are told that W=L+2 so the equation becomes:

255=(L+2)L

255=L^2+2L

L^2+2L-255=0

L^2+17L-15L-255=0

L(L+17)-15(L+17)=0

(L-15)(L+17)=0  Since L>0...

L=15yd, and since W=L+2, W=17yd so

length=15, width=17yd
