a million. One huge form is x, the different one is x - 6. So, x^2 + (x -6)^2 = 146 x^2 + (x -6)(x -6) = 146 x^2 + (x^2 -12x +36) = 146 x^2 + x^2 -12x +36 = 146 2x^2 -12x +36 -146 = 0 Subtract 146 from both area 2x^2 -12x -one hundred and ten = 0 Divide both area by ability of two to get x^2 -6x -55 = 0 ingredient (x - 11)(x + 5) = 0 x = 11 and x - 6 = 5. both solutions are 5 and 11 or x = -5 and x - 6 = -11. both solutions are -5 and -11 some thing looks incorrect with huge form 2. If W = x and L = x -5, then the dimensions is decrease than the width that's unconventional.
