6. The area of a rectangular sheet of paper is 300 cm squared. The length is 5 cm more than the width a) If the width of the rectangle is x cm, state an expression for the length of the rectangle.
b) Write and algebraically solve a quadratic equation to determine the length and
width of the rectangle.

a) length = x + 5  

b) + 5x - 300 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x = width

x + 5 = length

(x)(x + 5) = 300

+ 5x = 300

+ 5x - 300 = 0

(x+20)(x-15)

x = -20 or x = 15  ( disregard the -20. measurements can't be negative)

width = 15

length = x+ 5 =  15+5 = 20

i think asking google will you get the answer to that question
