Answer: The length is 10ft, the width is 7ft.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let L be the length

Let w be the width

The equation for the perimeter is:

2L+2w=34

We also know that L=2w-4

So we can insert L=2w-4 into 2L+2w=34

2(2w-4)+2w=34

4w-8+2w=34

6w=42

w=7

If the width is 7, we can insert it into 2L+2w=34 to find out the length

2L+14=34

2L=20

L=10

The width is 7 ft, the length is 10 ft.

Equation B is written in vertex form, which means you can read the vertex (extreme value) from the numbers in the equation.

Vertex form is
   y = a(x -h)² + k
where the vertex (extreme point) is (h, k). Whether that is a maximum or a minimum depends on the sign of "a". When "a" is negative, the graph is a parabola that opens downward, so the vertex is a maximum.


Equation B reveals its extreme value without needing to be altered.
The extreme value of this equation is a maximum at the point (2, 5).
