Sagot :

Answer:

Width of the room = 5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

the rectangular living room is calculated as length * width

The area is given to be equal to 40 sq. meters (area = 40 sq. meters)

Let the width = x meters

Length = X+3 meters

Area = Length * Width

40 = X * (X+3)

40 = X^2 + 3X

We solve this quadratic equation

So x = 5 or x= -8

Width  cannot be negative, so we reject x =-8

So x = 5 is the answer
