The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:
A=2l+2w.
We know the area is 116, so we can plug that in for A. Now, we cant solve the equation yet because it still has two variables. Since we know the length is 5 feet greater than the width, we can rewrite l in terms of w. So here is what our new equation will look like:
116=2(w+5)+2w
Now lets solve:
116=2w+10+2w
106=4w
w=26.5 ft.
The width is 26.5 ft.

−x − y = 1
Gemiola [76]
<span>The system of linear equations

−x − y = 1
y = x + 3

can be solved in various ways.  This problem hints that you should graph both lines and find the coordinates of their point of intersection.

But we can also solve this system using substitution.  Note that y = x + 3.  We can subst. x + 3 for y in the 1st equation, as follows:

-x - (x+3) = 1.  This simplifies to -x -x - 3 = 1, or -2x = 4, or x = -2.

Since y = x + 3, subbing -2 for x produces y:  y = -2 + 3 = 1

Thus, the solution is (-2, 1). </span>
