Answer:
- Length of rectangle = x = 17 units
- Breadth of rectangle = y = 9 units
To find:
- length and breadth of the rectangle
Solution:
- Let length of rectangle be x
- Let breadth of rectangle be y
As we know that,
- Area = length × breadth = Area = xy
Given that,
- The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units. if its length is reduced by 5 units and the breadth is increased by 3 units
so,
- Area = length × breadth
● xy - 9 = x(x - 5) (y + 3)
● xy - 9 = x(y + 3) - 5(y + 3)
● xy - 9 = xy + 3x - 5y - 15
● 0 = xy + 3x - 5y - 15 - xy + 9
● 3x - 5y - 6 = 0
● 3x - 5y = 6
3x - 5y = 6 is equation (1)
Also Given that,
- the area is increased by 67 square unit.
- if we increase the length by 3 units and breadth 2 unit
so,
- Area = length × breadth
● xy + 67 = x(x + 3) (y + 2)
● xy + 67 = x(y + 2) - 3(y + 2)
● xy + 67= xy + 2x - 3y - 6
● 0 = xy + 2x + 3y + 6 - xy + 67
● 2x + 3y - 61 = 0
● 2x + 3y =61
2x + 3y =61 is equation (2)
Here both equation are
- 3x - 5y = 6
- 2x + 3y = 61
Now ,from equation (1),
- 3x - 5y = 6 (1)
● 3x - 5y = 6
● 3x = 6 + 5y
● x = 6 + 5y / 3
Now put the value x in equation (2) ,
● 2x + 3y = 61
● 2 (6+5y)/3) + 3y = 6
Now multiplying both by 3
● 3 × 2 (6+5y)/3 + 3 × 3y = 3 × 61
● 2 (6 + 5y) + 9y = 183
● 12 + 10y + 9y = 183
● 19y = 183 - 12
● 19y = 171
● y = 171 / 19
● y = 9
Now putting the value y = 9 in eq (1),
● 3x - 5y = 6
● 3x - 5(9) = 6
● 3x - 45 = 6
● 3x = 6 + 45
● 3x = 51
● x = 51 / 3
● x = 17
Hence , x = 17 y = 9
- Length of rectangle = x = 17 units
- Breadth if rectangle = y = 9 units
