Answer:
a square backyard with width (x - 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
x²−18x + 81 = x² - (2 x 9) x + 9² = (x - 9)²
width = area / length = (x - 9)² / (x - 9) = x - 9
Length = width
This is a square backyard
Answer:
x=2
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to get everything on one side to have a quadratic equation:
x^2+6x-4 -(3x+6) = x^2+3x-10
All factors of 10 are 1*10 and 2*5.
5-2 = 3 and 5*-2 = -10
Factoring x^2+3x-10 gives us (x-2)(x+5)
x=2
x=-5
