X= 5 or -8
Add all the like terms and set it equal to 49, use quadratic formula or factoring.
I am thinking on this question hold up
Area(A)= lw
perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 34in
length(l)= w+5
width(w)= w
1/2 P= 17= w+l
17= w+(w+5)
17= 2w+5
2w=12
w=6 in
l= w+5
l= 6+5
l=11 in
A= lw= (11)(6)= 66in²
Answer:
Area of rectangle is 66 in².
