Q:

Let w=width and 4 + w=a rectangle is 4 more than the width.a rectangle is 60 square yards.ngth of the rectangle?Which equation represents unctuation?W[4 +W) = 60COMPLETEUsing the zero product property, the equation is(W + 10) (W - 6) = 0COMPLETE) + 4What is the length of the rectangle? |yardsIDO NE

A:
Answer:Part 1 : [tex]w^2+4w-60=0[/tex]Part 2 : w=6l = 10 Step-by-step explanation:Part 1: Let the width of the rectangle = wLength of the rectangle = w + 4Area of the rectangle is given as 60 Sq Yrds[tex]60=w(w+4)[/tex][tex]60=w^2+4w[/tex][tex]w^2+4w-60=0[/tex]Hence this expression represents the area of the rectangle. Solving which for w will give us the width of the rectangle. Part 2:(w+10)(w-6)= 0 either (w+10) = 0 or (w-6)=0 or both are zero (w+10) = 0 β‡’ w = -10not possible as the dimension can not be 0(w-6)=0 Β β‡’ w=6 Hence the width is 6 yardsAnd thus the length will be 6+4 = 10 yards
