The rectangle below has an area of 70 square meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. (x - 11) (x - 8)

the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

area of the rectangle, A = 70 m²

dimensions of the rectangle, = x - 11 and x - 8

The area of rectangle is calculated as;

A = L x B

70 = (x - 11)(x - 8)

70 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88

0 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88 - 70

0 = x² - 19x + 18

0 = x² - x - 18x + 18

0 = x(x - 1) -18(x - 1)

0 = (x - 18)(x - 1)

0 = x - 18     or    

0 = x - 1

x = 18 or 1

The dimensions of the rectangle are calculated as;

L = 18 - 11  = 7

B = 18 - 8 = 10

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.
