Jose needs to enclose a rectangular section of his yard. The area is 35 sq. ft. and the perimeter is 27 sq. ft. Find the length and width of the section.

let l be the length, and w be the width in feet.
so 2l+2w=27 --->l+w=13.5 ----> w=13.5-l

secondly lw=35
l(13.5-l)=35

expand and express as a quadratic equation, you will have to use the formula
Let me know what you get.
