Write them as system of equations:
x=length, y=width
2x+2y=86
4x+2y+22=166


when you solve, then x=length=7, y=width=36

Solve the equation for x, where x is a real number (5 points): <br> -2x^2 + 7x + 7 = 6
Artemon [7]
Start by doing a subtraction of 6 to both sides so that the equation becomes -2x^2 + 7x + 1 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                             x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                             x = [ -7 ± √((7)^2 - 4(-2)(1)) ] / ( 2(-2) )
                             x = [-7 ± √(49 - (-8) ) ] / ( -4 )
                             x = [-7 ± √(57) ] / ( -4)
                             x = [-7 ± sqrt(57) ] / ( -4 )
                             x = 7/4 ± -sqrt(57)/4
The answers are 7/4 + sqrt(57)/4 and 7/4 - sqrt(57)/4.
