Ok so I like to go in steps with these questions- first draw a picture and identify your variables.
W=width
L= 3w-1
Now we know that length times width gets us area so we plug in our variables into the area equation.
200 = w(3w-1)
When you foil that equation you end up with a quadratic : 3w^2-w-200 = 0
Either factor that or use the quadratic formula to get
w= 8.33 and w= -8
Since you can't have a negative dimension you need to use 8.33 and plug it back into your length equation.
Final answer:
w= 8.33ft
l= 23.99ft
*Now I simplified the decimals a little bit so you end up with 199.8ft^2 for the area so just add a few decimals on here and there*

Answer:
when you multiply a whole number by itself it will obviously get bigger.
4 to the 2nd power equals 16 because 4x4 = 16
if you were to multiply a smaller number though, it wouldn't get as big.
Each number you put to the same exponent will not get bigger at the same rate since each number isnt being multiplied by the same thing.
ex. 4 and 6 are raised to the second power both dont get multiplied by the same number 4 is multiplied by 4, and 6 by 6, therefore the bigger the number the bigger it grows.
Fractions get smaller for this reason when you have the fraction 2/3 raised to the second, both numbers must be raised. 2 to the second equals 4 while 3 to the second is 9.
1/2 to the second would then equal 1/4 since 1 to the second equals 1 and 2 to the second equals 4.
