The length of a rectangle is seven times its width. The area of the rectangle is 175 square centimeters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = l × w

where

l is the length

w is the width

The length is seven times the width is written as

l = 7w

Area of the rectangle = 175 cm²

7w × w = 175

7w² = 175

Divide both sides by 7

w² = 25

Find the square root of both sides

w = √25

w = 5cm

But l = 7w

l = 7(5)

l = 35cm

The length is 35cm

The width is 5cm

Hope this helps you.

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
