Answer:

Length = 40 units and Breadth = 30 units .

Step-by-step explanation :

The length of rectangle is 40 square units.

The breadth of rectangle is 30 square units.

Solution:

Given:

Length and Breadth of rectangle be l and b.

Area of rectangle = lb

(l - 5) (b + 2) = lb - 80

(l + 10) (b - 5) - lb = 50

5l + 10b = 100  

Divide both side by 5

l + 2b = 20

l – 2b +20 = 0________ ( 2 )

Multiplying ( 2 ) by 2 , we get  

2l – 4b = -40______ ( 3 )

Subtracting ( 3 ) from ( 1 ), we get  

-b = -30  

b = 30

2l -5(30) = -70

2l = -70 + 150

l = 40

Length = 40 units and Breadth = 30 units .
