A rectangle’s width is one-fourth of its length. Its area is 9 square units. The equation l(l) = 9 can be used to find l, the length of the rectangle. What is the length of the rectangle? 0.75 units 1.5 units 3 units 6 units

Respuesta :

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 6 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, I represents the length of the rectangle,

Since, width of the rectangle is one-fourth of its length,

⇒ Width of the rectangle = [tex]\frac{l}{4}[/tex]

We know that,

The area of a rectangle = Length × Width,

Thus, the area of given rectangle,

[tex]A=l\times \frac{l}{4}[/tex]

According to the question,

A = 9,

[tex]\implies l\times \frac{l}{4}=9[/tex]

[tex]\implies \frac{l^2}{4}=9[/tex]

[tex]\implies l^2 =36\implies l = 6[/tex]

Hence, the length of the rectangle is 6 unit.
