Answer:
x=2 x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 +2x-8=0
Factor
What numbers multiply to -8 and add to 2
-2*4 = -8
-2+4 =2
(x-2) (x+4) =0
Using the zero product property
x-2 =0 x+4 =0
x-2+2=0+2 x+4-4=0-4
x=2 x=-4

Answer:
length= 100 width=70
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangular field is 340 yds.
The length is 30 yds longer than the width.
2(l + w) = 340
l + w = 170
w + 30 + w = 170
2w = 140
w = 70
Hence the dimensions:
Length: 100 yds.
Width: 70 yds.
