The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W, where L is the length and W is the width. Because we don't know either the length or the width we can't solve the problem...too many unknowns.  BUT we do have some information that will help with this problem.  We are told that the length is 2 feet longer than the width, so we can use that: L = W+2.  Now we can make the substitution into the formula along with the value for the perimeter that was given to us: 36=2(W+2) + 2W, and 36 = 2W + 4 + 2W; 36 = 4W + 4; 32 = 4W and W = 8.  Now go back to where you said that the length is 2 feet longer than the width.  If the width is 8, then 8+2 = 10 for the length.

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4) and another line goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0).

This answer almost coincide with option C. I suppose there was a mistype.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is formed by:

–x + 2y = 6

4x + y = 3

In the picture attached, the solution set is shown.

The first equation goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4), as can be checked by:

–(0) + 2(3) = 6

–(2) + 2(4) = 6

The second goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0), as can be checked by:

4(0) + (3) = 3

4(0.75) + (0) = 3

Here is your answer

\bold{x=12}

REASON:

Concept used: The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.

So, in above given figure

3x+7=5x-17 (measures of opposite sides)

5x-3x= 17+7

2x= 24

x= 24/2

x= 12
