set up an equation for the perimeter
l = length w = width
2l + 2w = 64
set up another equation as you know the length is 3 times the width
w = 3l
subsitute w = 3l into the 2l + 2w = 64
2l + 2(3l) = 64
solve for l
2l + 6l = 64
8l = 64
<em><u>length</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>=</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>8</u></em>
subsitute into w = 3l
w = 3(8)
<em><u>width</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>=</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>2</u></em><em><u>4</u></em>
X = -6/5 I hope this helps
Answer:
y = −32
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Area of rectangle is length x width
area of smaller rectangle
9x5=45
area of large rectangle
11x7=77
77-45=32
