Question

Does anyone know how to do this

Answer 1

Considering the area of the rectangle, we have that the length is of 8 units and the width is of 10 units.

What is the area of a rectangle?

The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given as follows:

A = lw.

In this problem, the area is of 80 square units, while the length and the width are consecutive even integers, hence:

• A = 80.

• w = l + 2.

Then:

l(l + 2) = 80

l² + 2l - 80 = 0

(l + 10)(l - 8) = 0.

We need the positive measure, hence:

l -  8= 0 -> l = 8 units.

w = l + 2 = 10 units.
