the area of rectangle gets reduce by 6 square units, if the length of the rectangle is reduced by 2 units and breadth increased by 1 units. If we increases the length by 3 units and reduce breadth by 1 units, the area increases by 9 square units. Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle =x units
The breadth of the rectangle =y units
∴ Area of rectangle =xy sq. units
According to the first condition
⇒(x−5)(y+3)=xy−9
⇒xy+3x−5y−15=xy−9
⇒3x−5y=6........eq1
According to the second condition
⇒(x+3)(y+2)=xy+67
⇒xy+2x+3y+6=xy+67
⇒2x+3y=61.....eq2
Multiply eq1 by 3 and eq2 by 5
⇒9x−15y=18.......eq3
⇒10x+15y=305........eq4
Adding eq3 and eq4
⇒19x=323⇒x=17
Put x=17 in eq2
⇒2×14+3y=61
⇒3y=27⇒y=9
Hence, the length of the rectangle =17 units
The breadth of the rectangle =9 units
hope this solution will help you to solve this
