Question

Aisha wants to make two quilts, each with the same area. The first quilt will be square with sides s feet long. The second quilt will be a rectangle with a width that is half the length of a side of the square quilt and a length that is 6 feet longer than a side length of the square quilt.



Which quadratic equation can be used to find s, the side length of the square quilt?


s2 = (s + 6)

s2 = (s)(s + 6)

s2 = (6s)

s2 = (s)(6s)

Answer 1

Answer 2

First find the sides of the rectangle
Width is s/2
Lengt s+6
Both áreas are equal
A1=A2
S^2=(s/2)*(s+6)
2s^2=s^2+6s
S^2=6s
