Answer:

The length is 24, width is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the length and width cannot both be 12 (to make 144), other factors of 12 can be tested to be a product of 144. Half of 12 is 6, and 24 * 6 = 144. If we add up 12 + 12 + 6 + 6, we get 60, or the given perimeter.

step 3. the y = 2 asymptote creates a 2x in the numerator.

step 4. so y = 2x/(x - 1).
