The length of a rectangle is 2 meters more than its width. The area of the rectangle is 80 square meters. What is the length and width of the rectangle
I think the answer is Length = 10 and Width = 8 Let length be x+2 and width be x x(x+2)=80 x=-10 or 8 The width cannot be negative so the width will be 8 The length is 8+2=10.
