Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be w centimeters.
Then the length = w + 7.
The area A is found from the length multiplied by the width.
330 = w(w + 7) = w^2 + 7w.
Now we can rearrange this equation to form a quadratic, as follows:
The factorization of the quadratic is:
(w + 22)(w - 15) = 0
Therefore we find that:
width = 15 centimeters
length = 22 centimeters
