Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter formula is P = 2L + 2W. Here P = 34 units = 2L + 2(6.5 units).

Reducing this, 17 = L + 13. Then L = 4 units.

Five times the larger number is 11 more than three time the smaller number. Also three times the smaller is 16 less four times t

Let the larger number be w and the smaller number be k;
5w-11=3k
3k+16=4w
Reorganizing the equations;
5w-3k=11
4w-3k=16
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1:
w=-5
Replacing value of w in equation 1;
5(-5)-11=3k
-25-11=3k
3k=-36
k=-12
The numbers are -5 and -12
