A person needed a new rain spout, but instead of buying one, she decided to make her own by bending up an equal amount on both sides of a piece of sheet metal. If the sheet metal was 28 inches long, how much would she have to bend up on both sides so that the area would be 45 square inches? If you have two answers, type in the larger of your answers.
Equations and Inequations
