Area = length x width
length = 3 x width - 5
i.e. 50 = w(3w - 5)
3w^2 - 5w - 50 = 0
(3w + 10)(w - 5) = 0
w = -10/3 or w = 5
but width cannot be negative, hence
width = 5 yd
Length = 3 x 5 - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10 yd
Answer:
64/19
OR
3 7/19
depending on how you need to write it
Step-by-step explanation:
x= | 1 < x < 3
x + 2 < 5 and x - 7 > -6
x < 5 - 2 and x > -6 + 7
I don't know if I am 100% right.
