9514 1404 393

Answer:

  12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the room be represented by w. Then the length is (2w-2), and the area is ...

  A = LW

  264 = (2w-2)w

  132 = w² -w . . . . . . . divide by 2, eliminate parentheses

  132.25 = w² -w +.25 . . . . . add (-1/2)² to complete the square

  √132.25 = w -0.5 . . . . . take the square root

  0.5 +11.5 = w = 12 . . . . . add 0.5; use the positive root

The width of the living room is 12 feet.
