The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 85 square feet. Its length is 12 feet longer than the width. Find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

Length = 17 feet, Width = 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 85 square feet.

Its length is 12 feet longer than the width.

Question asked:

Find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

Solution:

Let width of a rectangular wall of a barn =

As length is 12 feet longer than the width.

Length of a rectangular wall of a barn =

As we know:

Subtracting both sides by 85

As width can never be in negative, hence  width of a rectangular wall of a barn = = 5 feet

Length of a rectangular wall of a barn =

Therefore, length and width of the wall of the barn is 17 feet and 5 feet respectively.

idk what the answer is but for the points

step-by-step explanation:

the first one and the second one that's the answer

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
