The perimeter of a rectangular field is 110 meters.and the area of the field is 750 square meters
Find the dimentions of the field?
------
Equations:
L + W = 55 meters
LW = 750 meters
-----
Substitute for "L" and solve for "W"::
(55-W)W = 750
-W^2 + 55W = 750
----
W^2 - 55W + 750 = 0
Factor::
(W-25)(W-30) = 0
---
If Width = 25, Length = 30
If Width = 30, Length = 25
