    Let the width of the rectangle be x

    then the length is x+2

    we are given the area as 80 square meter

    and we know the area of a rectangle is given by

    area=L*W

    area = (x+2) * x

    but our area=80

    80 = (x+2) * x

    x^2+2x=80

    x^2+2x-80=0

    we use the quadratic formula to solve this which gives us

    x=8

    therefore our width is 8

    and our length is 10
