The dimensions of playing card is L = 10 centimeter and W=5 centimeter, If the playing card has an area of 50 square centimeter and a perimeter of 30 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                  Playing card has an area of 50 square centimeters

                  A perimeter of 30 centimeters

Step:1

                 A playing card is in the shape of rectangle,

                 Formula for perimeter of rectangle is,

                                      Perimeter, P = 2(l+w) .........................(1)

                 Formula for area of rectangle is,

                                             Area, A= lw......................................(2)

                  Where, l - Length of rectangle

                             w - Width of rectangle

Step:2

                From the given values equation (1) becomes,

                                                       30 = 2(l+w)              

                                                       \frac{30}{2}=(l+w)      

                                                       15 =(l+w)

                                                       w=15-l  .............................(3)

                Width value in terms of length is calculated.

Step:2

                Equation (2) becomes,

                                                      50 = (15-l)(l)

                                                      50= 15l -l^{2}

                                      l^{2}-15l+50=0

              Solving the above equation,

                                                          =10

                                                       l=10 cm

Step:3

                 Equation (3) becomes,

                                                       w=15-l

                                                           =15-10

                                                           =5

                                                     w = 5 cm

Result:

           The dimensions of playing card is L = 10 centimeter and W = 5 centimeter, If the playing card has an area of 50 square centimeter and a perimeter of 30 centimeters.
