A) w * L = 112
B) 2w + 2L = 44
A) w = 112 / L then substituting this into B)
B) 2 * (112/L) + 2L = 44
B) 224 / L + 2L = 44
B) 224 + 2L^2 = 44L
B) 2L^2 -44L +224 = 0
L = 14
L = 8

Double Check
Width = 14  Length = 8
2*14= 28 2*8 = 16
28 + 16 = 44

14*8= 112
Correct!!!

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

xx(0.65) + xx(0.08)

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to find the discounted price. Finding 35% less than the original xx is the same as finding 65% of it, so we multiply by 0.65. Once this is completed we need to find 8% more than that. So we add 8% of xx, which is the same as multiplying by 0.08. Hope this helps :)
