Answer:

lenth = x= 12cm

Breadth = y = 8cm

Explanation:

Given :

The length of a rectangle is 4 cm more than its width

The area of the rectangle is 96 cm²

To Find :

Width of the rectangle.

Solution :

Let the length of the rectangle be x cm.

Let the breadth of the rectangle be y cm.

Case 1:

➣ _____(1)

Case 2 :

We have the formula for area of the rectangle as follows :

Where,

l = length → x cm

b = breadth → y cm.

Substitute, x = 96/y in equation 1,

Divide by minus sign,

As per assumption, y = breadth of the rectangle.

•°• y = -12 is not acceptable.

Substitute, y = 8 in equation 1,
