The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.
W=S-2 and L=2S-3
And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.
S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:
S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side
S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side
S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides
S^2-7S+6=0 factor:
S^2-S-6S+6=0
S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0
(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:
S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...
W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in
W=4 in and L=9 in
So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:
The Food Pyramid
Let's you and me discuss a few things that you already know:
-- What's a y-intercept ?
The y-intercept on a graph is the place where it crosses the y-axis.
-- That's the value of 'x' at the y-intercept ?
The y-intercept is on the y-axis, so 'x' is zero there.
-- Good ! So how would you find the y-intercept of a function ?
You say that x=0 and look at what 'y' is.
-- Very nice. What's the function in this question ?
The function is
f(x) [or 'y'] = x⁴ + 4x³ - 12x² -32x + 64 .
-- Excellent. What's the value oif that function (or 'y') when x=0 ?
It's just 64 .
-- Beautiful.
Are there any answer choices that cross the y-axis at 64 ?
How many are there ?
There's only one.
It's the upper one on the right hand side.
