P=2x+2y, y=(p-2x)/2

a=xy, using y found above in this equation gives you:

a=(px-2x^2)/2 we are told a=12 and p=16 so

12=(16x-2x^2)/2

24=16x-2x^2

2x^2-16x+24=0

2x^2-12x-4x+24=0

2x(x-6)-4(x-6)=0

(2x-4)(x-6)=0

2(x-2)(x-6)=0

So the table is 2 ft by 6 ft.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\-------------------------------\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\qquad\text{add 16 to both sides}\\\\x^2+6x=16\\\\x^2+2(x)(3)=16\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2}_{(*)}=16+3^2\\\\(x+3)^2=16+9\\\\(x+3)^2=25\Rightarrow x+3=\pm\sqrt{25}\\\\x+3=-5\ \vee\ x+3=5\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\\boxed{x=-8\ \vee\ x=2}$
