Given: Area of triangle =84 square feet

height= 4 feet greater than 4 times its base

h=4b +4

Area of triangle= 1/2 ( b) (h)

plugging for area and height

84=1/2 ( b)* (4b+4)

168=4b² +4b

4b²+4b-168=0

taking out 4 common as gcf

b²+b-42=0

factorising we get

(b+7)(b-6)=0

b=6, -7

since length cannot be negative so base =6feet

height= 4b+4 = 24+4=28 feet

Elemantary school so
area=legnth times width
to get greatest area, make legnth as close to width as possible in measure

to get least area, make legnth as far away from width as possible in measure
perimiter=2 times legnth+2 times width=2 times (legnth+width)
18=2 times (legnth+width)
divide 2
9=legnth+width
find closest and farthest
1+9 is farthest
4+5 is closest

areas=legnth times with
1 times 9=9
4 times 5=20
differnce is subtract
20-9=11

answe is 11
(note I didn't use decimals since the user is supposedly in elemenatry school)
