54 can be factored as follows:
54
2*27
2*3*9
2*3^2*3
2*3^3
Therefore, 54 is equal to 2*3^3, or 2*3*3*3.
Since x is the length, then x+7 has to be the width.
The area of a rectangle can be found via the formula :
A = length * width
So if we replace the area with the given number (170) and the length, and width, with what we assumed, we get..
170 = x * (x+7)
[which is.. ]
170 = x^2 +7x
0 = x^2 +7x - 170
And that is the answer.
Add them together to get the answer?
