<h3><u>The length is equal to 25.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 15.</u></h3>

l = 2w - 5

2l + 2w = 80

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

2(2w - 5) + 2w = 80

Distributive property.

4w - 10 + 2w = 80

Combine like terms.

6w - 10 = 80

Add 10 to both sides.

6w = 90

Divide both sides by 6.

w = 15

Now that we have a value for w, we can plug it into the original equation to solve for l.

l = 2(15) - 5

l = 30 - 5

l = 25

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are equal triangles, all of their sides are equal

so, lets take one side of each triangle (4, 5)

the law:

the scale factor = the larger side ÷ the smaller side

x = 5 ÷ 4

x = 1.25

For checking:

the larger side = the smaller side × the scale factor

Y = 4 × 1.25

Y = 5
