Hector has a rectangular garden that measures 13 m wide by 15 m long. He wants to increase the area to 255 m2 by increasing the width and length by the same amount. What will be the length (longer dimension) of the new garden?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: let x be the length loner
(15+x)*(13+x)=255
x^2+28x+195=255
x^2+28x-60=0
( x-2)(x+30)=0
x=2 or x=-30 (rejected)
Therefore the length longer is 2 m
