The equation that models this relationship is y = 3x + 2.
Just press this into your calculator
Let x be the width
2x-3= length
(2x-3)(x)=14
2x^2-3x=14
2x^2-3x-14=0
(2x- 7)(x+2)=0
x=7/2 or x=-2
Since we know that negative values cannot exist in distance, we have to take 7/2 to as the correct answer.
The width would be 3.5 yards
Length= 2(3.5)-3
=4 yards
3.5 x 4 yards is the dimension of the rectangle
Hope I helped :)
