Answer 1

`(-5 + √(37) )/(2)`

Note:

Have no clue if its right

Answer 2

see explanation

Explanation:

The area (A) of the rectangle = length × breadth, that is

A = BC × CA

= (x + 3)(x + 2) ← expand using FOIL

= x² + 5x + 6

Given that A = 9 , then

x² + 5x + 6 = 9 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

x² + 5x = 3 ← as required
