Answer:
Let w = the width
Let 4w + 6 = the length
A = lw
130 = w(4w+6)
130 = 4w2 + 6w
4w2 + 6w - 130 = 0 Divide both sides by 2.
2w2 + 3w - 65 = 0
(2w + 13)(w - 5) = 0
2w + 13 = 0 and w - 5 = 0
2w = -13 and w = 5 inches
w = -6.5 (illogical answer)
l = 4w + 6
l = 4(5) + 6 = 20 + 6
length = 26 inches
