width=x
\n" ); document.write( "length=5+4x
\n" ); document.write( "(x)(5+4x)=80
\n" ); document.write( "5x+4x^2-80=0
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2+5x-80=0
\n" ); document.write( "using the quadratic equation we get;
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+-sqrt[5^2-4*4*-80])/2*4
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+-sqrt[25+1280])/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+-sqrt[1305])/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+-36.125)/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+36.125)/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5+36.125)/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=31.125/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=3.89 answer.
\n" ); document.write( "x=(-5-36.125)/8
\n" ); document.write( "x=-41.125/8
