PROBLEM

The length of a garden is 4m more than twice its width and its area is 38m². Which of the following equations

represents the given situation?

ANSWER

2x² + 4x - 38 = 0

SOLUTION

The Area of rectangle is measured by multiplying its width and length. In mathematical representation,

A = L × W

Let x be the width, hence, W = x

Length is 4 meters more than twice the Width,

hence, L = 2x + 4

It is stated that the Area is equal to 38 m²

Substituting all of it, we get,

A = L × W

38 = (2x + 4) (x)

38 = 2x(x) + 4(x)

38 = 2x² + 4x

0 = 2x² + 4x - 38

2x² + 4x - 38 = 0
