 \underline { \pink{ Dimensions \: of \: a\: rectangle : }}

 Let \: width (w) = x\: m\: and

 Length (l)\\ = (2 \times width - 3 )\: m \\= ( 2x - 3 ) \: m

 Area\: of \: the \: rectangle = 65\: m^{2} \:(given)

 \implies l \times w = 65

 \implies ( 2x - 3 )\times x - 65 = 0

 \implies 2x^{2} - 3x - 65 = 0

/* Splitting the middle term, we get */

 \implies 2x^{2} - 13x + 10x - 65 = 0

 \implies x( 2x - 13 ) + 5( 2x - 13 ) = 0

 \implies ( 2x - 13 )( x + 5 ) = 0

 \implies 2x - 13 = 0 \: Or \: x + 5 = 0

 \implies 2x  = 13 \: Or \: x = -5

 \implies x  = \frac{13}{2} \: Or \: x = -5

/* x should not be negative . */

 \blue {x =  \frac{13}{2}}

Therefore.,

 \red{ Width } \green { = \frac{13}{2}}

 \red{ Length } \\= (2x - 3 ) \\= 2 \times \frac{13}{2} - 3 \\= 13 - 3 \\\green {= 10 \: m }
