Question

Area of a rectangular plot is 528 m square. The length of the plot ( in metres ) is 1 m more than twice its breadth find the length and breadth of the plot.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth of plot be x

length of plot = (2x + 1)

Area of plot = l*b = 528

x ( 2x + 2) = 528

2x$2x^{2}$ +x - 528 = 0

2x²+33x-32x-528=0

x(2x+33)- 16(2x+33)=0

(2x+33)(x-16)=0

2x+33=0 or x-16=0

(rejected)

x=16m

Therefore, Breadth = 16 m

Length = 2(16)+1 = 32+1 = 33 m
