You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Are you asking \"Can you solve for b and h if you are given the area and a relationship between b and h\"??
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, because then you'll have one equation with one unknown which is solvable.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=b%2Ah\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h=6%2B2%2Ab\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then substitute,
\n" ); document.write( "\"b%2A%286%2B2b%29=A\"
\n" ); document.write( "where A is known.
\n" ); document.write( "\"6b%2B2b%5E2=A\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2b%5E2%2B6b-A=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "You have a quadratic equation in b which you can solve by factoring, graphing, or if all else fails the quadratic formula.
\n" ); document.write( "Good luck!
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
