Answer 1

Answer:

The length is 9 feet and the width is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the dimensions be L (the length)  and L - 5 (the width).

From the given information the area is:

A = L(L - 5)

When L becomes L + 3 and width becomes (L - 5) -1  = L - 6 we have:

A = (L + 3)(L - 6) so

L(L - 5) = (L + 3)(L - 6)

L^2 - 5L = L^2 - 3L - 18

-2L  = -18

L = 9

so the width = 9 - 5 = 4.
