the length of a rectangular field is increased by 3 and breadth is decreased by 3 .Then the area decreased by 18 m square but if length and breadth both are increased by 3 its area is increased by 60 square find the length and breadth of the field
Answers
Answer:
The length of the rectangle is= 10m
The breadth of the rectangle is= 7m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the original rectangle is = x m
And the breadth of the original rectangle is = y m
Now the area of the rectangle is = x×y m^2
Now if the length of the rectangle is increase d by 3 m then the length of the rectangle is
= x+3 m
And if the breadth of the rectangle is decreased by 3 m then the breadth of the rectangle is = y-3 m
Now the area of the rectangle is = (x+3) × (y-3) m^2
Now by given condition,
(x+3) ×(y-3) = xy-18
=> xy-3x+3y-9 = xy-18
=> -3x+3y = -18+9=-9
=> 3x-3y = 9----(1)
Now, if the length of the rectangle is increased by 3m then the length of the rectangle is = x+3 m
And if the breadth of the rectangle is increased 3m then the breadth of the rectangle is = y+3 m
Now the area of the rectangle is = (x+3) × (y+3) m^2
Now by given condition,
(x+3) ×(y+3) = xy+60
=> xy+3x+3y+9 = xy+60
=> 3x+3y = 51-----(2)
Now solving (1) and (2), we get
(1) +(2),
3x-3y+3x+3y = 9+51
=> 6x = 60
=> x= 10
Now, 3x+3y = 51
=> 3y = 51-3y = 51-3×10 =51-30 = 21
=> y =21/3 = 7
So, the length of the rectangle is= 10 m
Breadth of the rectangle is= 7 m
