I’m a little confused by the question and the problem, is there a picture of the problem you could add?
Answer: Length = 11
Width = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the unknown length.
Let x - 2 represent the unknown width.
The perimeter is equal to 2 times x + (x -2)
Equation:
2 (x + (x - 2)) = 40
x + (x - 2) = 40/2
x + x - 2 = 20
2x - 2 = 20
2x -2 + 2 = 20 + 2
The length is: 2x = 22 -> x = 22/2 -> x = 11
The width is: x - 2 = 9
2x + 3(8 - 3x) = 3
2x + 24 -9x = 3
-7x = -21
x = 3
y = 8 - 3x
y = 8 - 3(3)
y = 8-9
y = -1
Check the math:
2(3) + 3(-1) = 6 - 3 = 3
Answer:
The answer is 7/100 in a Simplified Fraction.
