Width = x
\n" ); document.write( "Length = x + 9
\n" ); document.write( "Area = Length * Width
\n" ); document.write( "112 = (x + 9) * x
\n" ); document.write( "112 = x^2 + 9x
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 9x - 112 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x - 7)(x + 16) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x + 16 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = -16 (no answer as x < 0)
\n" ); document.write( "x - 7 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 7
\n" ); document.write( "Width = 7cm
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 16cm
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
