Answer: width : 2.5 ft. and length : 4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area = W × L

[tex]10=W(2W-1)[/tex]

[tex]10=2W^{2} -W[/tex]

[tex]0 = 2W^{2}-W-10[/tex]

[tex]0=(2W-5)(W+2)[/tex]

W = 2.5 and -2

You can't use -2 so

[tex]L = 2(2.5)-1[/tex]

[tex]L = 4[/tex]

please give me a brainliest answer
