Answer:
Dimensions Of The Driveway is Length=16 Feet & Width=9 Feet
Step-by-step explanation:
According To Question,We Have Given
Length of Driveway Is 7 feet longer than its Width
Let the Width be X Feet . So Length is (X+7)Feet
Area Of Driveway = 144 sq. Feet
X * (X+7) = 144
+7X=144
+16X-9X-144=0
X(X+16)-9(X+16)=0
X = -16 & +9 (Neglect -16 because Width=X, that Can Never be in Negative)
So X = +9
Now Put this value, We get Width = 9 Feet & Length =16 Feet
