The answer is: B. 11

Explanation:

1. The area of a rectangle is:

A=LW

Where L is the length and W is the width.

2. The length of the rectangular-shaped deck is 5 meters longer than its width, therefore:

L=W+5

3. You must substitute this into A=LW:

66=(W+5)W\\W^{2}+5W-66=0

4. Now you must solve for the width. You can use the Quadratic formula, which is:

W=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

Where:

a=1\\b=5\\c=-66

5. Subsitute values:

W=\frac{-5+/-\sqrt{5^{2}-4(1)(-66)}}{2(1)}\\W=6

6. Then, the lenght is:

L=6m+5m\\L=11m
