Which equations can be used to solve for y, the length of the room? Check all that apply.

A) 750 – y(y – 5) = 0

B) y(y + 5) = 750

C) y(y – 5) + 750 = 0

D) (y + 25)(y – 30) = 0

if area equals length times width then 750=5 x y but that doesnt seem to be there, so i would say e because it is the closest to it. sorry but hope this helps
