a retangle has a length of y+5 and a width of y-5 find the area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Area of a rectangle = length times width (y+5)*(y-5)=(y^2)-25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can it be solved any further?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not without additional information. Are you given the area, and supposed to solve for y? Are you given y? Any additional information whatsoever?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Basically, the equation we have right now is\[Area=y ^{2}-25\] That's all we can do with the information provided.
