Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 45HP

The ratio of the longer side to the shorter side is 5:2 .

Explanation of Solution

The perimeter of the rectangle is given by,

  2(l+b)=P2(y+y2+1)=14y2+y+1=7y2+y6=0

Simplify further,

  y2+3y2y6=0y(y+3)2(y+3)=0(y+3)(y2)=0y=3,2

The ratio of length and width is calculated as,

  bl=y2+1y=22+12=52

Therefore, the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side is 5:2 .
