width = w
length = w+4
Area = l*w
substitute
96 = (w+4) *w
distribute
96 = w^2 +4w
subtract 96 from both sides
0 = w^2 +4w -96
factor
0=(w+12) (w-8)
w+12=0 w-8=0
w=-12 w=8
cannot have negative width
w=8
l=12
Answer: width =8 cm
length = 12cm

Answer:
3 more students need to sign up
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equal number of students in 9 teams be x.
Total number of signed up students = 690.
Let t be the required number of students to be signed.
Therefore, 9x = 690+t.
This means, 690+t is a multiple of 9.
The least value of t to make 690+t, a multiple of 9 is 3 and hence,

= 77
Hence, 3 more students need to sign up and each of the 9 teams consists of 77 students.
