Question

If the length of a rectangle is decreased by 2 metres and the breadth increased by 2 metres the area would increase 8 square metres . If the length is decreased by 3 metres and the breadth decreased by 1 metre , the area would decrease by 27 square metres. What are the length and breadth?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the rectangle=length×breadth

=x×y=xy sq. metres

From the given information, we have,

(x+3)×(y−4)=xy−67

and(x−1)×(y+4)=xy+89

(x+3)×(y−4)=xy−67

=>xy−4x+3y−12=xy−67

=>4x−3y=55

=>4x=3y+55....(i)

Also,(x−1)×(y+4)=xy+89

=>xy+4x−y−4=xy+89

=>4x−y=93....(ii)

Substituting equation (i) in equation (ii), we get,

4x−y=93

=>3y+55−y=93

=>2y=38

=>y=19

Substituting y=19 in equation (i), we get,

4x=3y+55

=>4x=3(19)+55

=>4x=112

=>x=28

Therefore, length of rectangle =x=28 metres

breadth of rectangle =y=19 metres
