Answer: (a) 11.8

               (b) 13

Step-by-step explanation:

\\Since George wants to put a string of lights around , it means we will have to consider the perimeter of the shape.

\\Perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

\\P = 2( L+B)

\\P = 2 ( 2.5 + 3.4)

\\P = 2 ( 5.9)

\\P = 11.8 meters

\\(b) Since he wants to put an addition to his wooden deck that is 0.6 meters longer , then the perimeter will be the perimeter of the first shape + 2(0.6). We used 2(0.6) because the two lengths of the rectangle must be considered

\\Therefore, we have

\\P = 11.8 meters + 2(0.6)

\\   = 11. 8 + 1.2

\\ = 13 meters

\\Therefore George needs 13 meters length of light

<span>Let y= original side So A = LW 60 = (y+15)(y-13) (y+15)(y-13) = 60 y^2 + 2y - 195 = 60 y^2 + 2y- 195 - 60 = 0 y = -17 or y= 15 Toss out the negative solution to get y= 15 as the only solution. So the square has a side length of 15 meters. The area of this square is 15^2 = 15*15 = 225 square meters.</span>

Given the system of equations, what is the solution?<br><br> x + 2y = 7<br> x - 2y = -1
Reika [66]
Add the 2 equations to eliminate the 2y. We get

2x = 6

x = 3

Plug x = 3 into the first equation:-

3 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 3 = 4

y = 2


Answer is x = 3 and y = 2
