How do I solve the question the width of a rectangle is six meters more less than it's length. If the area of the rectangle is 112m squared find the dimensions of the rectangle

Length of rectangle = 14 meters

width of rectangle = 8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of rectangle be x meters

width of the triangle is (x - 6) meters

Area of the rectangle is Length x width

112m² = x * (x - 6)

112 = x² - 6x

x² - 6x - 112 = 0

x² - 14x + 8x - 112 = 0

x (x - 14) + 8 (x - 14) = 0

(x - 14) (x + 8) = 0

x - 14 = 0 x + 8 = 0

x = 14 x = - 8

width can't be negative value

Therefore,

Length of rectangle = 14 meters

width of rectangle = 14 - 6 meters

= 8 meters
