It is given that the length is twice the width plus 3 yards; this can be written as a formula:
Length = 2 × Width + 3
To calculate the area of a rectangle the formula is:
Area_rectangle = Length × Width
Substitute for Length in the above formula by the given expression involving Width
→ Area = Length × Width = (2 × Width + 3) × Width = 2 × Width² + 3 × Width
But the area is given as 119 sq yd. If I now write w for Width, this gives:
2w² + 3w = 119 sq yd
→ 2w² +3w - 119 = 0
Which is a quadratic which can be solved either by using the formula or by factorising:
It does factorise: the factor pairs of 119 are 1 × 119 and 7 × 17. One bracket will have (2w ...) and the other will have (w...). As the 119 is negative, there are effectively four pairs of numbers that could be fitted into the brackets: {-1, 119}; {-7, 17}; {7, -17}; {1, 119}. There is one pair which will fit so that when multiplied out gives the quadratic.
A quadratic will always have two solutions; as one of the numbers above is negative and one positive, the two solutions will comprise of one positive and one negative value for w (Width); as a length must be positive, the negative solution cannot work and the positive solution is the required Width, from which the Length can be calculated (as above).

In a square, the sides are all the same length.
Because of the dimensions of the cylinder, once shadowed, the shadow resembles a rectangle due to the flat top of the cylinder and the smooth surfaces.
this is a funky question... 8x10 kilometers

Missing information. The rectangle could be a square then the two sides would be the square root of 5000 or about 70.71. As the rectangle gets longer the sides change and thus the dimensions.
As is, many answers are possible. If the rectangle is a square, the dimensions are 14 x 14.
It depends on the dimensions of the rectangle.
what are the dimensions of the rectangle with this perimeter and an area of 8000 square meters
a rectangle has longer sides then the square then the other
What are the dimensions of a rectangle that has a perimeter of 56 units and an area of 96 square units
12 square feet.
There is no limit to the size of the perimeter.
Without the dimensions, we won't be able to tell. The area of a rectangle is the length times the width. If those dimensions are in inches, the area will be in square inches.
That depends on its dimensions.
They are the same but a rectangle is longer wheras a square isn't.
