Question

the rectangular post shown at the right measures 2w-30 by w. the poster has an area of 5400 cm^2. what is The value of w ?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

w(2w - 30) = 5400

2w²- 30w = 5400

2w² - 30w - 5400 = 0

(w - 60 ) ( w + 45 ) = 0

w= 60 w= - 45

only take the positive value

therefore w = 60
