One side of a rectangle is 2 m shorter than another side. The area is 360 m2. Write a quadratic equation and solve it to find the length of the longer side of the rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the side = x

So, other side = x - 2

Area = 360 sq.m

x*(x - 2) = 360

x*x - x * 2 = 360

x² - 2x -360 = 0

x² + 18x - 20x  - 18*20 = 0

x(x +18) - 20*(x + 18 ) = 0

(x + 18)(x -20) = 0

{x + 18 is ignored as measurement will not be a negative number}

x - 20 = 0

x = 20

Length of the longer side = 20 m

the domain of a function is the set of input values, x , for which a function is defined. the domain is shown in the left oval in the picture below. the function provides an output value, f(x) , for each member of the domain.

you should talk someone who owns the website about it. you did not deserve to have all that hard work and time taken away. id watch videos of little puppies to cool you down, and maybe some nacho cheese doritos.
