the area of rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units,if it's length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 units.if we increase the length by 3 units and the breadth by 2 units,the area increases by 67 square units.find the dimensions of the rectangle
Answers
Answer:
Let length of rectangle = x units
And width of rectangle = y units
Area of rectangle = length * width = x*y
The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units, if its length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 units.
So
Decrease the length by 5 unit so new length = x - 5
Increase the width by 3 unit so new width = y + 3
New area is reduced by 9 units
So new area = xy – 9
Plug the value in formula length * width = area we get
(x - 5)(y + 3) = xy - 9
Xy + 3x – 5y – 15 = xy – 9
Subtract xy both side we get
3x - 5y = 6 …(1)
If we increase the length by 3units and the breadth by 2 units, the area increases by 67 square units.
Increase the length by 3 unit so new length = x +3
Increase the width by 2 unit so new width = y + 2
New area is increased by 67 units
So new area = xy + 67
Plug the value in formula length * width = area we get
(x +3)(y + 2) = xy + 67
Xy + 2x + 3y + 6 = xy + 67
Subtract xy both side we get
2x + 3y = 61 …(2)*3
3x - 5y = 6 …(1)*2
Cross multiply the coefficient of x we get
6x + 9 y = 183
6x -10y =12
Subtract now we get
19 y = 171
Y = 171/19 = 9
Plug this value of y in equation first we get
2x + 3* 9 = 61
2x = 61 – 27
2x = 34
X = 34/2 = 17
So length is 17 units and width is 9 units
