Answer:
- length: 5.7 yd
- width: 1.7 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the carpet. Then the length is w+4 and the area is ...
w(w +4) = 10
w² +4w = 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
w² +4w +4 = 14 . . . . . . add the square of half the w-coefficient to complete the square
(w +2)² = 14 . . . . . . . . . rewrite as a square
w +2 = √14 . . . . . . . . . take the square root
2 = -2 +√14 ≈ 1.7 . . . . yards (width)
Then the length is 4 more yards than this, so is ...
length = 1.7 +4 = 5.7 . . . yards
The length and width are 5.7 and 1.7 yards, respectively.
_____
In the attached graph, we let x represent the length. As you can see, the magnitudes of the two zeros are width and length.

Answer:
x = 5.5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
31 = x + 25.5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract 25.5 on both sides: 5.5 = x
- Rewrite: x = 5.5
