This is an area problem. The key words are 120 square feet and 12 feet longer.
And of course width is a key word when you are reading this.
Formula
Area = L * W
Givens
W = W
L = W + 12
Substitute and Solve
Area = L* W
120 = W*(W + 12)
W^2 + 12W = 120 square feet
w^2 + 12w - 120 = 0
This does not factor easily. I would have thought that a graph might help but not if the dimension has to be to the nearest 1/100 of a foot. The only thing we can do is use the quadratic formula.
a = 1
b = 12
c = - 120
w = [ -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ]/(2a)
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(12^2 - 4*(1)(-120)] / 2*1
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(144 - (-480)]/2
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(624)] / 2
w = [- 12 +/- 24.979992] / 2 The minus root has no meaning whatever.
w = (12.979992) / 2
w = 6.489995 I'll round all this when I get done
L = w + 12
L = 6.489995 + 12
L = 18.489995
check
Area = L * W
Area = 6.489995*18.489995
Area = 119.999935 The difference is a rounding error
Answer
L = 18.489995 = 18.49 feet
W = 6.489995 = 6.49 feet
Note: in the check if you round first to the answer, LW = 120.0001 when you find the area for the check. Kind of strange how that nearest 1/100th makes a difference.

Yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.

What is a quadratic equation?</h3>
The general quadratic equation is given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
So the solutions are the values of x such that the above thing is zero.
On another hand, a parabola or a quadratic function is given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = y
The roots, zeros, or x-intercepts (these represent the same thing) are given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
- Zero or Root means that when you evaluate the function in that value the outcome is zero.
- X-intercept means that for that value of x, the function intercepts the x-axis, so the function is equal to zero.
So these are the values of x such that the function becomes equal to zero, so these are exactly the same thing as the solutions of a quadratic equation.
Concluding, yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.

Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
25% of 960 is 240. to find that we need to do...
0.25 x 960 = 240
add the percent increace to the 960.....
960 + 240 = 1,200
Hope this helped! Please mark as brainliest! Thanks!!
