Formula for area of rectangle:
A=L x w
Here A=85 square ft
Length, L=w+12

Put values in formula.
85=(w+12)w
85=w^2+12w
Subtract 85 from both sides
w^2+12w-85=0
Factorise the equation.
(w-5)(w+17)=0
w=5 and w=-17
Ignore the negative value of width.
Width, w= 5 ft  and Length, L=12+5=17 ft

Answer: Width=5 ft and Length=17 ft

If it’s asking how old was it when she bought it, it was two days old

if not then you gotta be more specific but i’m gladly able to help if you provide more info

if it’s asking how long it’s been exactly since she bought it then the answer is it has been 26 days

Solve The Equation, Check Your Answer 15=7x+1-5x
Morgarella [4.7K]
15=7x+1-5x


Put like terms together. ( group anything alike)

15+1=16

7x-5x=2x

16 2x
—- ——-
2x 2x


2x/2x cancels itself out.

16 divided by 2 is 8

x=8

I hope this helped!
