Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle = Length × Width

A rectangle’s width is one-fourth of its length.

W = 1/4 × L

W = L/4

Cross Multiply

L = 4W

A = 9 square units

Hence

9 = L × W

We substitute 4W for L

9 = 4W × W

9 = 4W²

We square root both side

√9 = √4W²

3 = 2W

W = 3/2

W = 1 1/2 unit or 1.5 units

Solving for L = Length

9 = L × W

9 = L × 1.5

L = 9/1.5

L = 6 units

Therefore, the Length of the rectangle = 6 units

How to solve using substitution
DiKsa [7]
X+5 = x^2 - x + 2
0 = x^2 -2x - 3
0 = (x-3)(x+1)

x = -1,3

y = -1 + 5 OR y = 3+5
y = 4 OR y = 8

y = 4,8

So we have two ordered pairs, (-1,4) and (3,8).

Hope that helped!

can you mark my answer as brainliest btw?
