Answer:
width: 20, length: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
area = length x width
since length is 5 feet longer than the width, length = width + 5
so we can replace length with width + 5
500 = (width + 5) x width
500 = w^2 + 5w
0 = w^2 + 5w - 500
w = 20, w = -25
width cannot bc -25 since you cannot have negative width
since width is 20, length is 25 since length = width + 5
width = 20, length = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
area is base x height so 5 x 100 because as I said area is base x height.
