Let the first lawn's dimensions be x and y. Then x+y=17
The 2nd lawn's dimensions are x-2 and y+2
Now we know that
xy / (x-2)(y+2) = 7/6
6xy = 7(x-2)(y+2)
Now, using y = 17-x,
6x(17-x) = 7(x-2)(19-x)
Now solve for x, and you can answer the questions.
A rectangular lawn has perimeter of 34m.Another rectangular lawn is 2m narrower but 2m longer than the first lawn. If A¹ and A² are the areas of the first and second lawn respectively and A¹: A²=7:6 .find the dimensions of each lawn and the areas of each lawn
