<h3><u>The length is equal to 13.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 8.</u></h3>

l = 2w - 3

2l + 2w = 42

Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.

2(2w - 3) + 2w = 42

Distributive property.

4w - 6 + 2w = 42

Combine like terms.

6w - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides.

6w = 48

Divide both sides by 6.

w = 8

Now that we have a value for w, we can solve for the exact value of l.

l = 2(8) - 3

l = 16 - 3

l = 13

Based on the stock price and its growth rate, the function that models the situation is 48 (1 + 8%) ^ n. The price of the stock 6 years from now is $76.17.

<h3>What is the best function for the stock's growth?</h3>

The value of a stock in future can be calculated using several types of formulas that take into account the various characteristics of the stock.

For this stock, the value of the stock at any given year is:

= Current price of stock x ( 1 + growth rate) ^ number of years from now

Assuming the number of years is n, the function becomes:

= 48 x ( 1 + 8%) ^n

In 6 years, the price will be:

= 48 x ( 1 + 8%) ⁶

= $76.17
