The length of a rectangle is 7 centimeters less than its width. what are the dimensions of the rectangle if its area is 144 square centimeters?

Width = 16 cm

Length = 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = x cm

Length = x - 7

Area = 144 cm²

x(x - 7) = 144

x² - 7x = 144

x² - 7x - 144 = 0

(x - 16)(x + 9) = 0

x = 16 or x = -9 (rejected)

Width = 16 cm

Length = 16 - 7 = 9 cm
