The length and width of the rug is 20 and 11 feet respectively
The given parameters;
dimension of the room = 19 ft by 28 ft
maximum area of rug she can afford = 220 ft²
For a uniform stripe of floor around the rug, then suppose the uniform excess length of the floor to removed from each dimension = y
(28-2x)(19-2x)=220
532-94x+4x^2=220
4x^2-94x+312=0
x=39/2,4
For x=39/2, dimensions are negative.
The uniform dimension of the floor to be covered by the maximum area of rug she can afford = (28 - 4×2) and (19 -2×4 ) = 20 and 11
Thus, the dimensions of the rug should be 20 feet and 11 feet

To find the slope you use the slope formula y2-y1 / x2-x1. So use two point on the line we will make ours (1,2) and (3,4). Substitute to make 4-2 / 3-1 = 1/1 so using the rise over run method. The line rises up one and runs by one. The slash mark means divide, it's easiest in a fraction.
Also if you come across the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, this is called slope intercept formula.
You can use the regrouping
50 might be the answer because 12÷6=2 so I just multiplied 15×2 and that equaled my answer, 50
