Answer:
L = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the Length x and width x - 15 since the width is 15 less than length
Eric needs 70 of fencing in total, the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding all sides
x + x + (x - 15) + (x - 15) = 70 add like terms
4x - 30 = 70 add 30 to both sides
4x = 100 divide both sides by 4
x = 25
<h3>Answer:</h3>
13 years old
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Let g and m represent grandfather's age now and my age now. The relation 5 years ago was ...
... g -5 = 5(m -5)
The relation in 3 years will be ...
... g +3 = 3(m +3)
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...
... 8 = -2m +34
... 2m = 26 . . . . . add 2m-8
... m = 13
My age now is 13.

If we change everything to the same denominator it will look like this. 24/30 and he wants to take 10/30. 24/30 - 10/30 is 14/30 so 14/30 - 10/30 is 4/30. *He can take 2 1/3 pieces*
