<span>A = LW = 44
and
L = 3 + 2W
now substitute this into the first equation...
(3+2W)W=44
3W+2W^2=44

Rearranging
2W^2 + 3W - 44 = 0
Factoring we get
(2W + 11)(W - 4) = 0
so that
W = 4 inches
L = 11 inches</span>

Let width = x   then length  = 2x + 3

so area = 119 = x(2x + 3)

2x^2 + 3x - 119 = 0
(2x + 17)(x - 7)  
x = 7 , -8.5
so x = 7   ( -8.5 can be ignored)

Answer: 1

Work: After plugging in the 6 in the X, the new equation is -2(6) + 13. After doing the multiplication of -2 and 6, you get -12. Add -12 + 13, and the answer (Or y) equals 1.
