Let x be the width 
2x-3= length 

(2x-3)(x)=14
2x^2-3x=14 
2x^2-3x-14=0 
(2x- 7)(x+2)=0 
x=7/2 or x=-2

Since we know that negative values cannot exist in distance, we have to take 7/2 to as the correct answer. 

The width would be 3.5 yards 
Length= 2(3.5)-3 
=4 yards 

3.5 x 4 yards is the dimension of the rectangle 

Hope I helped :)

Yogi is 6 years older than Michelle. The sum of their ages is 26. Write a system of linear equations to represent this informati
postnew [5]

Answer:

10 and 16, x+(x+6)=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Michelle has an age we don't know, so we put her age as x.

Yogi is 6 years older than her, so her age is x+6

Michelle=x

Yogi=x+6

we know both their ages equal 26. so we set it up as

x+(x+6)=26

combining like terms we get

2x+6=26

subtract 6 from both sides

2x=20

divide both sides by 2

x=10

now that we have the value for x, we plug it into their original ages

Michelle is 10, because her age is just x.

Yogi is 16, because her age is x+6

The monomial of the 2nd degree with a coeficcient of 3
uranmaximum [27]
I assume it is the last one, 3n^2, because the degree is the exponent, which is two and the three is the coefficient, which is next to the variable, plus it is a monomial, so there is only one term, eliminating the first two, the third one is just reversed. Therefore, the answer should be the last one. Hope this helps. :)
