Step-by-step explanation:

$area \: of \: rectangle \: = 60 \: {yards}^{2} \\ \therefore \: (w + 4) \times \: w = 60\\ \\ \therefore \: {w}^{2} + 4w -60 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: {w}^{2} + 10w - 6w -60 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: w({w} + 10) - 6(w + 10)= 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: ({w} + 10) (w- 6)= 0 \\ \therefore \: {w} + 10 = 0 \: or \: w- 6 = 0 \\ \therefore \: {w} = - 10 \: or \: w = 6 \\ \because \: sides \: of \: rectangle \: cant \: be \: negative \\ \therefore \: w \neq \: - 10 \\ \\ \therefore \: w = 6 \\ \\ \therefore \: w + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10 \\ \\ length \: of \: rectangle \: = 10 \: yards.$

Answer:

x = $\frac{3+\sqrt{105} }{8} , \frac{3-\sqrt{105} }{8} x=1.655,-0.905$

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+6 = 4x^2

4x^2 -3x -6 = 0

x = $\frac{3+\sqrt{105} }{8} , \frac{3-\sqrt{105} }{8} x=1.655,-0.905$
