The length of a rectangle is 4 cm less than it’s width. If the area of the rectangle is 165 cm^2. What are the dimensions of the

Monica [59]

Answer:

The dimensions are 11 cm by 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = (length)(width).

Let L represent the length and W the width.

Since L = W - 4, we have

Area of rectangle = (W - 4)W = 165 cm^2.

Thus, w^2 - 4W - 165 = 0. We can solve for W using the quadratic formula:

a = 1, b = -4 and c = -165. Thus,

-(-4) ± √ [ (-4)² - 4(1)(-165) ]

W = ---------------------------------------

2

4 ± √ [16 + 660 ]

W = ------------------------------

2

4 ± √ [ 676 ] 4 ± 26

W = ----------------------- = W = ------------- = W = 2 ± 13

2 2

Thus, W is 2 + 13 = 15. It cannot be negative, so we discard 2 - 13 = -11.

If the width, W, is 15, then the length is 4 less, or L = 11.

The dimensions are 11 cm by 15 cm
