Dimensions are length 20 meter and width 14 meter
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "a" be the length of rectangle
Let "b" be the width of rectangle
Given that,
<em><u>A rectangle has width that is 6 meters less than the length</u></em>
Width = length - 6
b = a - 6
The area of the rectangle is 280 square meters
<em><u>The area of the rectangle is given by formula:</u></em>
<em><u>Substituting the values we get,</u></em>
<em><u>Solve the above equation by quadratic formula</u></em>
Since, length cannot be negative, ignore a = -14
<em><u>Thus solution of length is a = 20</u></em>
Therefore,
width = length - 6
width = 20 - 6 = 14
Thus dimensions are length 20 meter and width 14 meter
