Area = width * height
since the window is 20 inches higher than the width:
width +20 = height

640 = width * width+20
640 = width^2 +20*width
width^2 +20*width - 640 = 0
width = 17.203
**********************************************************
Double Check
if width = 17.203 then height = 37.203
area = 17.203 * 37.203 = 640 square inches Correct!!

Elena-2011 [213]

length of a rectangle is 6 less than 3 times its width"

L = 3W-6

"perimeter of the rectangle is 148 meters"

2L + 2W = 148

L + W = 74

(3W-6) + W = 74

4W = 80

W = 20 m

L = 3W-6 = 54 m
