Let the width of the rectangle be x
Then length =x-4
Area=x(x-4)=140
x²-4x=140
x²-4x-140=0
x²-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x-14)(x+10)=0
Therefore,length=14 cm and  width=10 cm

stira [4]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The probability is:

                   \dfrac{1}{400}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

An urn contains balls numbered 1 through 20.

A ball is chosen, returned to the urn, and a second ball is chosen.

This means that this is a case of a replacement.

Hence, one of the event is independent of the other.

Now we know that the probability to get a particular number of ball is:

                  \dfrac{1}{20}

( Since, there are total 20 balls and a ball of one particular number is just unique )

i.e. \text{Probability of getting a 8}=\dfrac{1}{20}

Hence, the probability that the first and second balls will be a 8 is:

=\dfrac{1}{20}\times \dfrac{1}{20}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{400}
