Width = w
Length = 3w - 6
Area = 360
Equation Area = wl
w (3w-6) = 360
3w^2- 6w = 360
3w^2 - 6w - 360 = 0
3 (w^2 - 2w - 120)=0
3(w + 10)(w - 12) = 0
w = -10 & 12
l = 3w-6 = 3 (-10)-6= -30 - 6= -36
l = 3w-6 = 3(12) - 6 = 36-6 = 30
Answer: -10 and 12. Yet, since this is a measurement, it must be positive so 12 ft
For this case we must complete squares:

We add the square of half the coefficient of the term "x",
on both sides of the equation:

According to the perfect square trinomial we have:

Rewriting the expression we have:

ANswer:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = - 3x. Equation 1
x + y = - 4 equation 2
Putting value of y
x + (-3x) = - 4
x - 3x = - 4
-2x = - 4
x = - 4/-2 = 2
Putting value of x in the equation 1
Y = - 3(2)
Y = - 6
No, it would leave a decimal
