Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Make width = x
\n" ); document.write( "Length = (4x + 9)
\n" ); document.write( "Area = Width x Length
\n" ); document.write( "198 = x(4x + 9)
\n" ); document.write( "198 = 4x^2 + 9x
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2 + 9x - 198 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(4x + 33)(x - 6) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 33 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "4x = -33
\n" ); document.write( "x = -33/4 (Disregard as negative)
\n" ); document.write( "x - 6 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6
\n" ); document.write( "Width = 6 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 33 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Area = 6 x 33 = 198 cm^2
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
