A rectangle has two dimensions, width and length, and the area of it is their product.
since we know its area is 3x²-11x-4, then the two factors from that trinomial are the likely width and length, namely (3x + 1) (x - 4).
you can check them with FOIL.
We need to solve for x, we need to get x alone
Lets start by removing -5
Add 5 on both sides
Now to isolate x , we need to remove the square from x
To remove square , take square root on both sides
square and square root will get cancelled
So 
and 
a. Answer: m = 2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = x² - 4x + 1
f(m) = m² - 4m + 1 = -3
m² - 4m + 4 = 0
(m - 2)(m - 2) = 0
m = 2
***************************************************
b. Answer: k = 2 and k = 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = x² - 7x + 14
f(k) = k² - 7k + 14 = 4
k² - 7k + 10 = 0
(k - 2)(k - 5) = 0
k = 2 k = 5
The answer would be 15/4 or 3 3/4
