182 Let x = width then y = 6x - 91. P (perimeter) = 2x + 2y = 84 then
2(x) + 2(6x - 91) = 84 | 2x + 12x - 182 =84 | 14x = 84 + 182 | 14x = 266 | x = 19 cm
y = 6x - 91 | y = 6 (19) - 91 | y = 114 - 91 | y = 23 cm
Check: P = 2x + 2y | P = 2(19) + 2(23) | P = 38 + 46 | P = 84 cm (Checked)

Answer:
x = 1\2 and y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 3y = 4 * 5\3
14x - 5y = 7 * 1
40\3x + 5y = 20\3 -------- 1
14x - 5y = 7 ----------------- 2
add equation 1 and 2
82\3x = 41\3
x = <u>4</u><u>1</u><u> </u> <u>3</u>
3 * 82
x = 1\2
subtitute 1\2 for x in equation 2
14\2 - 5y = 7
7 - 5y = 7
5y = 7 - 7
y = 0\5
y = 0
thus x = 1\2 and y = 0
No
because 2 similar triangles have to meet one of the following conditions:
1. all sides are equal
2. 2 pair of equal sides & the angles between these sides are equal
