the area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square metre what if its length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 if we increase the length by 300 and the breadth by 2 units the area increased by 67 square unit find the dimension of rectangle
Answers
Let the original length be x m and breadth by y m.
Area = xy m2
(x - 5) (y + 3) = xy - 9
3x - 5y = 6 ...............(1)
(x + 3) (y + 2) = xy + 67
2x + 3y = 61 ..............(2)
Multiplying equation (1) with 2 and equation (2) with 3, we get
6x - 10y = 12 .............(3)
6x + 9y = 183 ............(4)
On subtracting (3) from (4), we get, y = 9
x = 17
Hence,
Length = 17 m
Breadth = 9 m
Answer:
Answer:
Let the length of the rectangle be x m and the breadth of the rectangle be y m.
Then,
Area of rectangle = xy m²
★ If its length is reduced by 5 m and breadth is increased by 3 m,
Then,
Length = (x-5) m
Breadth = (y+3) m
A/Q, [ 1st case]
(x-5)(y+3)=xy-9
→ xy+3x-5y-15=xy-9
→ 3x-5y=15-9
→ 3x-5y = 6 .................... [ equation 1 ] ×2
★ If the length is increased by 3 m and the breadth is increased by 2 m,
Then,
Length = (x+3) m
Breadth = (y+2) m
A/Q, [ 2nd case]
(x+3)(y+2) = xy+67
→ xy +2x + 3y +6 = xy + 67
→ 2x+3y = 61................... [ equation 2] × 3
Now,
2 equations will be,
6x -10y = 12..........[1]
6x + 9y = 183.........[2]
Now subtract eq (1) from eq(2).
6x+9y-6x+10y = 183-12
→ 19y = 171
→ y = 9
Breadth = 9 m
Now out y=9 in eq(1).
3x-5y=6
→ 3x - 5×9 = 6
→ 3x = 6+45
→ x = 17
Length = 17 m
