6. A surveyor walks the perimeter of a piece of government land. He notes that the area of the land

Answer 1

Answer:

A) l = w + 900

B) l * w = 4,000,000

B) l = 4,000,000 / w putting this into A)

A) 4,000,000 / w = w + 900

A) 4,000,000 = w^2 +900 w

A) w^2 +900 w - 4,000,000

Solving by quadratic formula

width = 1,600 length = 2,500

Double-Check

1,600 * 2,500 = 4,000,000

Length = width + 900

2,500 = 1,600 + 900

Answer is okay
