Problema Solution
A large rectangular movie screen in an IMAX theater has an area of 11,834 square feet. Find the dimensions of the screen if it is 25 feet longer than it is wide
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'w' represent the width, then 'x+25' represents the length:
area = width * length
11834 = w(w+25)
solving for 'w' we have a positive value of w=96.99
97+25 = 122
the width of the screen is 97 feet, its length is 122 feet
