Answer:

Width: 7 Length: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Width: x

length: 2x-4

Area: 70 meters squared

(2x-4)x=70

2x^2-4x=70

2x^2-4x-70=0

2(x^2-2x-35)=0

(x-7)(x+5)=0

x cannot be negative so x=7

tatuchka [14]

The scale drawing of Julio's kitchen would change the kitchen size

The actual area is 243 square feet

<h3>How to determine the actual area of Julio's kitchen?</h3>

The parameters are given as:

Length = 4.5 inches
Width = 3.375 inches

Start by converting the dimensions to feet using the scale ratio

Actual length = 4.5 inches/ (1 inch/ 4 feet) = 18 feet
Actual width = 3.375 inches/ (1 inch/ 4 feet) = 13.5 feet

The area is then calculated as:

Actual Area = Actual length * Actual Width

This gives

Actual Area =18 feet * 13.5 feet

Evaluate the product

Actual Area = 243 square feet

Hence, the actual area is 243 square feet
