We are given with two equations to find the values of two variables, hence the problem can be solved.
Adding the two equations:
x + y = 12<u>x - y = 10
</u>2x = 22
<u />x =11
y = 1
19.445 is the answer as you can see...
first you need to see the 1 decimal place which is like the number smaller than 1, eg:0.5,0.4 then later you see the 2 decimal place and later third on order to find out...

Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are

The volume of the box is equal to


so

simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x

therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
