An architect is developing a plot of land for a commercial complex. When asked about the dimensions of the plot, he said that if the length is decreased by 25 m and the breadth is increased by 25 m, then its area increases by $625\,\text{m}^2$. If the length is decreased by 20 m and the breadth is increased by 10 m, then its area decreases by $200\,\text{m}^2$. On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions: (i) Formulate the linear equations in $x$ and $y$ to represent the given information. (ii) Find the dimensions of the plot of land by matrix method.
