Question:
the area of a rectangular plot is 528m. the length of the plot is one more then twice its breadth. find the lengthand breadth of the plot
Answer:
Let breadth of the pole = x
So, length of the plot = 2x + 1
Now area of the lot = 528
=> x(2x + 1) = 528
=> 2x2 + x - 528 = 0
=> (x - 16)*(2x + 33) = 0
=> x = 16, -33/2
Since length and breadth can not be negative,
So, x = 16
Now, breadth of the pole = x = 16
and length of the plot = 2x + 1 = 2*16 + 1 = 33
