X increases by one
y increases by 2
(5, 1) - > (x + 1, y + 2) -> (6, 3)
2a + 3b = 6
5a + 2b = 4
We multiply the first equation by 5 and the second by 2 and and subtract the second from the first:
10a + 15b = 30
-10a -4b = -8
11b = 22
b = 2
2a + 3(2) = 6
2a = 0
a = 0
Checking,
5(0) + 2(2) = 4
4 = 4, true
1+1+1+1=4
2+2+2+2=16
3+3+3+3=?
I won against: Marilyn Wright-Brown
The length of the concrete patio is 6 1/2.
I got this answer by dividing 36 5/6 and 5 2/3. Therefore, answer is 6 1/2
