Let the length equal x
Then the width would be 4x + 8 (8 feet more than 4 times the length)
Area = length x width:
5,472 = x * 4x+ 8
Simplify:
5472 = 4x^2 + 8x
Subtract 5472 from both sides:
4 x^2 + 8x - 5472 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
X = 36
Now you know the length is 36 feet
The width = 4(36) + 8 = 152 feet
Now find the perimeter: 152 + 152 + 36 + 36 = 376 feet.
The answer is B. 376
Hi there!
All you need to do to solve for a is add 1.6 to both sides of the equation.
It will look like this:
a - 1.6 + 1.6 = -3.7 + 1.6
After this you will see that a = -2.1.
Hope this helps!
When in doubt just replace a with -2.1 and see if you still get -3.7. :)
