Answer:
This past Memorial Day, a Minneapolis police officer knelt on the throat of a Black man, George Floyd, for 8 minutes and 46 seconds. Seventy-five years ago, an American pilot dropped an atomic bomb on the civilian population of Hiroshima. Worlds apart in time, space, and scale, the two events share three key features. Each was an act of state violence. Each was an act carried out against a defenseless opponent. Each was an act of naked racism.

There are 3 methods to solve this. elimination substitution and graphing but i am going to use the elimination method.
x+2y=17
<u> x-y =2
</u> 0+3y =15 ( subtracted down to eliminate the x)( x-x=0, 2y-(-y)=3y, and 17-2=15)
3y=15 (divide both sides by 3 to solve for y)
y=5
<u>substitute the y=5 in any of the above equations and solve for x
ie... ( </u>meaning where you find y in the equation, u replace it with a 5)
it will be easier to solve for x in (x-y=2) so i will use that one.
x-(5)=2 ( add 5 on both sides to solve for x)
x=7
Answer: 22, 38
3, 7
8, 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
It is given that the PERIMETER is BETWEEN 22 and 38
--> 22 < P < 38
Perimeter = 2w + 2L
It is given that L = w + 5
Substitute P with 2w + 2L and substitute L with w + 5
22 < 2w + 2(w + 5) < 38
22 < 2w + 2w + 10 < 38
12 < 4w < 28
--> 3 < w < 7
Since L = w + 5, then w = L - 5
Substitute P with 2w + 2L and substitute w with L - 5
22 < 2(L - 5) + 2L < 38
22 < 2L + 2L - 10 < 38
32 < 4L < 48
--> 8 < L < 12
