The length of a rectangle is 13 centimeters less than six times its width. its area is 15 square centimeters. find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Width = 3 cm

Length = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The length of a rectangle is 13 centimeters less than six times its width.

Its area is 15 square centimeters

To Find: Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Solution :

Let Width be x .

Since we are given that  length of a rectangle is 13 centimeters less than six times its width.

So, length = 6x-13

Now , Formula of area of rectangle =

We are given area = 15 square cm.

Width cannot be negative.

Thus the width is 3 cm

Length = 6x-13 = 6*3-13 =18-13=5 cm

Hence the dimensions of rectangle :

Width = 3 cm

Length = 5 cm

24+x=y
