-12.3f= -73.8
F multiplied by -12.3, you just put both thing down together and the equal sign and -73.8 the multiplication sign isn’t really necessary.
On the sheet, it's not even asking you for the dimensions.
It's just asking you to set up the <em>equation that you would use</em>
to find the dimensions. That's a great way to do it, because
nobody actually needs the answers, the whole thing is only
meant to help you learn HOW to find them.
==========================================
Call the width of the window 'W' .
We know that the length is 5 feet more than the width, so the length is (W + 5).
The area is (length times width).
Area = (W + 5) times (W).
36 = (W + 5) W
36 = W² + 5W
Subtract 36 from each side:
W² + 5W - 36 = 0
That's choice-4 .
8: tenths

Sixteen. For the fraction 6/10 which is equivalent to 3/5
