I know there must be an equation to do this, but there is a simpler way.
Just factor number 72 into two numbers which, when multiplied, equal 72. Two of such numbers are 9 and 8, and you can see that the difference between those two numbers is just 1. So that is the answer to your question - the length of the patio is 9 feet, whereas the width is 8 feet.

3p + 7 = -4(4 - 6p) + 2
zvonat [6]

p=1

Step-by-step explanation:

3p + 7 =  - 4(4 - 6p) + 2 \\ 3p + 7 =  - 16 + 24p + 2 \\ 3p - 24p =  - 16 + 2 - 7 \\  - 21p =  - 21

\frac{ - 21p}{ - 21}  =  \frac{ - 21}{ - 21}  \\ p = 1
