x * y = 168 (y + 2) * y = 168 y² +2y = 168 y² + 2y - 168 = 0 Now we can solve this quadratic with the quadratic equation: y = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a y = (-2 ± √(676))/2 y = -2 ± 26/2 y = -2 ± 13 y = 11 y = -15

A bridge is built across a river. One quarter of the bridge is over the left bank of the river and one third of the bridge is over the right bank. The river is 120 m wide. How long is the bridge?
With this you can form an equation:
ReplyDeletex = y + 2
x * y = 168
(y + 2) * y = 168
y² +2y = 168
y² + 2y - 168 = 0
Now we can solve this quadratic with the quadratic equation:
y = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a
y = (-2 ± √(676))/2
y = -2 ± 26/2
y = -2 ± 13
y = 11
y = -15
