Question

a rectangular plot is 30 meters longer than it is wide its area is 15000 square meters. which equation will help you find the dimensions

Answer 1

Let the breadth of the plot = X
Then,the length of the plot = 30+X
The area of the plot= (l)(b)
=X(30+X)=15000(given)
=30X+X^=15000
=x^+30x-15000=0
Then,solve to the value of x...

Thanks!

Answer 2

Y=30x+15000 becuase you have to put that word problem into a equation.
