Question 484149: The area of a rectangle is 45 square cm. If the length is 4 cm greater than the width, what are the dimension of the rectangle? Answer by chessace(471) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! L = W + 4
A = L * W = (W+4)W = 45
(w+9)(w-5)=0
w=5cm (-9cm would be too hard to draw).
L=5+4=9cm.
