Answer:

[tex]length=9.64m\\width=6.64m[/tex]

Solution:

  • First, write the given.

[tex]length(l)=x\\width(w)=x-3\\area(A)=64\\\\[/tex]

  • Then, substitute to the formula.

[tex]lw=A[/tex]

  • Simplify.

[tex]x(x-3)=64\\x^{2} -3x-64=0[/tex]

  • Find the value of x.

[tex]x^{2} -3x-64=0\\(x-9.64)(x+6.64)=0\\x_{1}=9.64\\x_{2}=-6.64[/tex]

Hope it Helps!
