The area of a rectangle is 33 m-, and the length of the rectangle is 5 m less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

x = 9.25

y = 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

area = 33

let length be y and width be x

2x - 5 = y

area of rectangle = length * breadth

(2x-5)(x)=33

2x²-5x=33

2x²-5x-33=0

solving quadratic equation

x = 9.25

y = 13.5

not sure about this one man

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
