the length of a rectangular plot of land exceeds the width by 7 m if the area pf the plot is 198 m square what is the length

28.142m

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle=width x lenght

so; (rotating the formula with what is given)

area of rectangle/width=lenght

197/7=lenght

28.142m =lenght

Length is 18 m and width is 11 m

Step-by-step explanation:

So based on the information given length is seven cm more than your width, and since we don’t know the values of these, we can plot this information into a formula that looks like this: (x+7)(x)=198, which is basically how you take the area of the plot of land.

If you multiply your values, you will get a quadratic equation that looks like this x²+7x-198. If you follow the quadratic formula to solve this equation, the positive result you will get for x is 11, this is your width. And since length exceeds by 7, you just add 7 to 11 to find the length, which ends up being 18.

to verify, you can simply multiply these two values
