Can somebody explain how to do 15? asap! : )

Length=2+3w
Area= Length × Width
56= (2+3w)(w)
56=2w+3w^2
56-56=3w^2+2w-56
0=3w^2+2w-56
CONTINUATION IN THE PICTURE
The width is 4
The length is 14;
2+3w
2+3(4)
2+12
14
I stated in the picture that a length cannot be negative. That doesn't mean -14/3 wouldn't work. You may use it if you want.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

The distance from point a to point c across the coordinate plane is aproxamatly 8.94 rounded to the nearest hundredth. you use a^2 + b^2 =c^2
