1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104
2. Expand
x^2+5x=104
3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0
4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0
5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8
6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104
The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D

Answer: D) common ratio</h3>
Explanation:
The four points on this curve are
(1, 3)
, (2, 6), (3, 12)
, (4, 24)
The equation of the curve that goes through all the points mentioned is
y = 3*2^(x-1) which is equivalent to y = 1.5*2^x
Both equations are exponential equations.
Sequences of the form
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
are geometric sequences with common ratio r. In this case, r = 2.
Note how the jump from 3 to 6 is "times 2", so is from 6 to 12, and from 12 to 24. We multiply each term by 2 to get the next one.
