Let breadth be x

  • Length=2x-2

We know

\boxed{\sf Area=Length\times Breadth}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 112=x(2x-2)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x^2-2x-112=0

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=-7\:or\:x=8

  • Ignore negative value

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto Length=2x-2=2(8)-2=16-2=14

\\ \sf\longmapsto Breadth=8

Alborosie

Answer: Town 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Town 1's population is growing at a factor of 1.02 which means that it is increasing by 2% a year.

Town 2 is growing at a factor of 0.999 which means that it is decreasing at a rate of:

= 1 - 0.999

= 0.1%

Town 3's population is increasing by 150 a year and town 4 is 200 people a year.

Town 1 will eclipse them all eventually because it is <u>growing proportionally at 2%</u>.

Towns 3 and 4 will eventually see 150 and 200 people fall below 2% of their town's population which means they will be growing at a slower rate than Town 1.
