Answer:

[tex]W=2.58 unit[/tex]

[tex]L=15.5 unit[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Area [tex]A=40[/tex]

Equation

Length [tex]L=6LW[/tex]

Generally the equation for Area of a rectangle is mathematically given by

 [tex]A=L*W[/tex]

 [tex]A=W*(6W)[/tex]

 [tex]A=6W^2[/tex]

 [tex]W=\sqrt{40/6}[/tex]

 [tex]W=2.58 unit[/tex]

Therefore Length is

 [tex]L=6W[/tex]

 [tex]L=6(2.58)[/tex]

 [tex]L=15.5 unit[/tex]
