The length of a rectangular pool is 4yds longer than twice the width. If the area is 70 square yards, find the dimensions.
2 answers:
L is equal to 10
W is equal to 6
Answer: Found it by web and solving
Step-by-step explanation: L = W + 4
LW = 60
---
LW = 60
(W + 4)W = 60
W^2 + 4W + (-60) = 0
---
above is in quadratic equation form: ax^2 + bx + c = 0
---
use the quadratic formula to solve for two solutions:
x = ( -b +- sqrt( bb - 4ac ) ) / 2a
---
the two solutions are:
W = 6
W = -10
the negative solution doesn't make sense for length, so use the positive solution.
---
L = 10
W = 6
