The length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width. the area of the patio is 280 square feet. find the dimensions of the patio.

The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20

The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Let 'x' be the width

Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width

2x-8 = length

The area of rectangle = length X width

Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet

x(2x-8) = 280

2(x)(x-4) =280

x(x-4) =140

x^2 -4x -140=0

x^2-14x+10x-140=0

x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0

(x+10)(x-14) =0

x = -10 and x = 14

we can choose only x =14

The width of the rectangle 14

The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20

The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20

The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
