Use the information to write the dimensions of each rectangle in terms of w, the width of the 1st one.

1st rectangle;
l = 2w
w = 2

2nd rectangle:
w = w 
l = 2w + 4

If the area of the 2nd rectangle is 70 square meters, you will use the area formula to write an equation that you will solve using the factoring.

A = lw
70 = w(2w + 4)
70 = 2w^2 + 4w
0 = 2w^2 + 4w -70
0 = 2 (w^2 +2w - 35)
0 = 2 (w + 7) (w - 5)

To get zero, the width would need to be -7 or 5.  Because it is a distance, it has to be 5 meters.

The width of both rectangles is 5 meters.

I believe the first and last one are polynomials. Usually they start with the highest exponent first and then work their way down.

The Redbirds likelyhood is lowest, therefore, they're least likely to play I'm the championship.
