Answer:
5 feet high
Step-by-step explanation:
A= LxW
Yx4= 20
/4 /4
Y= 5ft
It is 5ft high
Width = x
length = x+10
Area of deck = 144 square feet
Area = length * width
144 = x(x+10)
Solving for x in a quadratic:
x²+10x = 144
x²+10x-144 = 0
Factor:
(x+18)(x-8) = 0
Solving for x:
x = 8, x = -18
Dimensions cannot be negative, therefore x = 8, only.
Length = x + 10
Length = 18
Width = 8
