Question

The length of a rectangle is 5m more than its width. its area is 300 m^2. Find the actual dimensions of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

W = 7.74 m  ;   L = 38.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

by the given condition

The length of a rectangle is 5m more than its width.

L=5W        ;   A=300 m²

area of rectangle = L*W

                          300 = 5W * W

                         300 = 5W²

                           300/5 = W²

                            60 = W²

                               W = 7.74 m

                 hence, L = 5 * (7.74)

                                  L = 38.7 m
