A Room Whose Area Is78ft2202fhas A Length That Is4feet Longer Than The Width. What Arethe Dimensions

A room whose area is 78 ft2 has a length that is 4 feet longer than the width. What are   the dimensions   of the room? 

Pls pa help po with solution po sna pls

Area of the room = 78 ft².

let the width of the room be x ft.

therefore, the length = (x + 4) ft.

according to problem,

x × (x + 4) = 78 ft².

x² + 4x = 78

x² + 4x – 70 = 0

solving equation for x

x =  \frac{ - b \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}  \: and \: x =  \frac{ - b \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}

x =  \frac{ - 4 \sqrt{(4)^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times ( - 78) } }{2a}

x =  \frac{ - 4 + 18.11}{2}

x = 7.05 (apx.)

therefore width = 7.05 ft

and length = 7.05 + 4 = 11.05 ft

and

x =  \frac{ - b \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}, \: here \: x \: will \: come \: as  \\ \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \ negative \: value \: which  \\   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: is \: not \: possible
