Question

The length of a rectangular plot is 8 metre greater than its breadth if the area of the plot is 308 metre square find length and breadth of plot

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let breadth=x

length=x+8

ar(plot)=x(x+8)

308=x2+8x

x2+8x-308=0

x2+22x-14x-308=0

(x+22)(x-14)=0

x=14,-22(not consider since length can't be -ve)

length =14

& breadth=22
