All your questions depend on finding the length and width of the rectangle.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let w = width
\n" ); document.write( "Let L = length
\n" ); document.write( "\"wL=65\", from description;
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=-2%2B3w\", from description.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"wL=w%283w-2%29=65\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3w%5E2-2w=65\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%283w%5E2-2w-65=0%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Is that factorable? Use trial and check or use discriminant.
\n" ); document.write( "Discriminant, \"%28-2%29%5E2-4%2A3%28-65%29=784\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%28784%29=28\"------\"Nice\" whole number, so the quadratic in w is factorable.
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "Try finding factorization:
\n" ); document.write( "(3w____13)(w____5)--------gives 13 and 15. You want negative 5....
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28%283w%2B13%29%28w-5%29=0%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "The meaningful solution there is \"highlight%28w=5%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Back to the description's definition for length L,
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=3w-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=3%2A5-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28L=13%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You have what you need to answer your four questions.
