Answer:

The length and width are 11ft and 5ft respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

let the

length = L

Width = W

Area = LW = 55

The length is nine feet less than four times the width

L = 4W - 9

W (4W - 9) = 55

4W^2 - 9W -55 = 0

4W^2 - 20W + 11W - 55 = 0

4W(W - 5) + 11(W - 5) = 0

(W - 5)(4W + 11) = 0

W - 5 = 0 , 4W + 11=0

W = 5 or  - 11/4

since the width cannot be negative, W = 5

LW = 55

L = 55/5

L = 11

The length and width are 11ft and 5ft respectively.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Factors :- (x - 5) (x + 2)

Values :- x = 5, x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

= > x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - (5 - 2)x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - 5x + 2x - 10 = 0

= > x (x - 5) + 2 (x - 5) = 0

= > (x + 2) ( x - 5) = 0...factors

= > x = 5, - 2...values
