Question

The area of a rectangle is 28m^2 and the length of a rectangle is 1 m more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Width= x

Length= 2x + 1

Area = 28

Area =>width × length

28 = x(2x + 1)

28 = 2x^2 + x

2x^2 + x - 28 = 0

x = 7/2 or -4

:- x = 7/2

Width = 3 1/2m

Length = 2x + 1 = 2(7/2) + 1

Length = 7 + 1 = 8m
