Explanation:
Given :-
- The length of rectangular garden is 15 feet longer than its width
- The area of rectangular garden is 700ft²
To find:-
- Dimensions of rectangular garden
Solution:-
According to the question , let the length of rectangular garden be x and width be x + 15
We know , the formula for area of rectangular garden is L × B
putting the known values ,
700ft.² = X × (X + 15)
700 ft. ² = x² + 15x
x² + 15 x - 700 = 0
By factorising it we get , x = 20
So , the dimensions of rectangular garden are 20 feet and 35 feet respectively for length and width.
