a rectangular lawn has an area of a^3 - 125. use the difference of cubes to find out the dimensions of the rectangle.

ANEK [815]

The area of a rectangle is the product of its dimensions

The dimensions of the rectangle are: $\mathbf{Length = a -5}$ and $\mathbf{Width = a^2 + 5a + 25}$

The area is given as:

$\mathbf{Area = a^3 - 125}$

Express 125 as 5^3

$\mathbf{Area = a^3 - 5^3}$

Apply difference of cubes

$\mathbf{Area = (a - 5)(a^2 + 5a + 5^2)}$

$\mathbf{Area = (a - 5)(a^2 + 5a + 25)}$

The area of a rectangle is:

$\mathbf{Area = Length \times Width}$

So, by comparison:

$\mathbf{Length = a -5}$

$\mathbf{Width = a^2 + 5a + 25}$
