Area of rectangle = 35 feet square
Let the Width of rectangle is x feet.
Length of rectangle is 3 feet more than twice the width.
Thus,Length can be written as: 2x + 3
Area of rectangle is product of its length and width.
So,
Area = Length x Width
Thus
x = -5
or
x =7/2 = 3.5
Since the measure of width cannot be negative, we neglect x = -5. and keep the value x = 3.5
Therefore,
Width = 3.5 feet
Length = 2x + 3 = 2(3.5) + 3 = 10 feet
