Question

7. The Waltz family are planning to repave their driveway. The length of their driveway is 7 feet

Answer 1

Answer:

Dimensions Of The Driveway is Length=16 Feet & Width=9 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

According To Question,We Have Given

Length of Driveway Is 7 feet longer than its Width

Let the Width be X Feet . So Length is (X+7)Feet

Area Of Driveway = 144 sq. Feet

X * (X+7) = 144

$X^{2}$+7X=144

$X^{2}$+16X-9X-144=0

X(X+16)-9(X+16)=0

X = -16 & +9 (Neglect -16 because Width=X, that Can Never be in Negative)

So X = +9

Now Put this value, We get Width = 9 Feet & Length =16 Feet
