The length of a rectangle is 19 centimeters less than its width. Its area is 20 square centimeters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Use the​ formula, area =length*width.

width =20

length = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

length = w - 19

A = l*w

20 = (w-19) * w

20 = w^2 - 19w

Subtract 20 from each side

0 = w^2 - 19w - 20

Factor

0 = (w+1)(w-20)

Using the zero product property

w+1 = 0 w-20 = 0

w = -1   w=20

Widths cannot be negative

w=20

l = 20-19 = 1
