Answer:

length = 10 units; width = 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width = w

Then the length is w + 7

Original area: w(w + 7)

Double the width: 2w

Increase the length by 2: w + 9

Area of new rectangle: 2w(w + 9)

Area of new rectangle = w(w + 7) + 42

2w(w + 9) = w(w + 7) + 42

2w^2 + 18w = w^2 + 7w + 42

w^2 + 11w - 42 = 0

(w + 14)(w - 3) = 0

w + 14 = 0 or w - 3 = 0

w = -14 or w = 3

A width cannot be negative, so we discard w = -14.

The original width is 3 units.

The length is 7 more than the width, so the length is 10 units.
