Tony found the area of a rectangular garden to be g² + 16g + 63 sq. ft. Factor the expression to find the measurements of the length and width of the garden.

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation can be (x + 8)(x + 2) = 91. Now we solve:

(x + 8)(x + 2) = 91

x^2 + 2x + 8x + 16 = 91    expand

x^2 + 10x + 16 = 91           simplify

x^2 + 10x - 75 = 0            subtract 91 from both sides

(x + 15)(x - 5) = 0               factor

x + 15 = 0              x - 5 = 0

x  -15                    x = 5
