I just need an explaination of how to get the factored form.

City engineers decide to build a rectangular dog park that has an area of 3,600 square yards, where the length of the park is 10 more yards than twice its width. The equation
x2 5x 1,800 0 can be used to find the width of the dog park.

a. Write the equation in factored form.

the answer is simply just 6n add the two together as they have an n

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
