EASY* BRAINLEST AND THANKS
A rectangle has a length of 28 feet less than 6 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 48 square feet, find the length of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

W=6

L=8

Step-by-step explanation:

L=6W-28

Area=48

Area=L x W

48=W(6W-28)

48=6W^2-28W

6W^2-28W-48=0

factor

(3W+4)(2W-12)=0

3W+4=0

3W=-4    no

2W-12=0

2W=12

W=6

L=8
