Question 211465
Area  =  Length * Width
.
but  L= 2w-7
.
A= (2w-7)*w = 2w^2 -7w also = 30,,,,,given
.
2w^2 -7w -30 =0
.
solve  using  quadratic  formula
.
a=2,,,b=-7,,,,,c=-30
.
w=[-(-7) +/- sqrt{(-7)^2-4(2)(-30)}]/2(2)
.
w= [ 7 +/- sqrt{49+240}]/4
.
w= [ 7 +/-sqrt {289}]/4
.
w= [7 +/- 17]/4
.
w= 6, -2.5 (not reasonable)
.
l=2w-7 = 2*6-7 = 5
.
check,  A=5*6 =30,,,,,,ok
