Where Simple Problems?  Nathan Stanford

Where can I go to find people who might help me with this problem?


Simple Question...
The length of a rectangle is 6 centimeters more then its width. The area
is 216 square centiemeters. What are the dimensions?


My son is solving polynomial

However it is a trinomial I think.... it has been so long I can not
remember how.

cm = centimeters


A=WL
216cm² =W(W+6cm)

W²+ 6cmW - 216cm² = 0
