By finding the area of the rectangle, we will see that she will need 150 ft^2 of flooring.

<h3>How to get the area of the rectangle?</h3>

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is:

A = L*W

And the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W).

In this case, we know that the length is 5ft longer than the width, so we can write:

L = W + 5ft

We also know that the perimeter is 50ft, so we can write:

P = 50ft = 2*(W + 5ft + W)

     50ft = 4*W + 10ft

     40ft/4 = W = 10ft

So the width is 10 ft, and then the length will be:

L = 10ft + 5ft = 15ft

So the area of the rectangle is:

A = 10ft*15ft = 150 ft^2

She will need 150 ft^2 of flooring.
