Answer:
Length = 45 inches and Width = 20 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be w.
Length(l)=2.25w
Area = 900 in^2
The formula for the area of a rectangle is Area = length * width
So substituting our values we get:
[tex]A=2.25w*w\\900=2.25w*w\\2.25w^2=900\\w^2=\frac{900}{2.25} \\w^2=400\\w=\sqrt{400} \\w=20[/tex]
So we get width = 20 inches
Length = 2.25w
so Length= 2.25*20
=45 inches
