x-\ width\\
y-\ length\\
4x=y\\
(y+4)(x-1)=60\\
(4x+4)(x-1)=60\\
4x^2-4x+4x+4=60\ \  | subtract\ 4\\
4x^2=56\ \ | divide\ by\ 4\\
x^2=14\\
x=\sqrt{14}\\
y=4\sqrt{14}\\\\
Dimensions:\ width=\sqrt{14}in,\ length=4\sqrt{14}in.

Pleaseee help!

Step-by-step explanation:

f(3)=?

f(x)=2x+5

put x=3,

f(3)=2(3)+5=6+5=11

------------

g(2)=?

g(x)=x^2-3

put x=2,

g(2)=2^2-3=4-3=1

-----------------

g(f(-1))=?

g(x)=x^2-3

and f(-1)=2(-1)+5= -2+5=3

so g(f(-1))=3^2-3=9-3=6

----------------

f(g(-1))=?

f(x)=2x+5

g(x)=g(-1)=(-1)^2-3=1-3= -2

f(g(-1))=2(-2)+5= -4+5=1

----------------

g(f(x))=?

g(x)= x^2-3

put x=f(x),

g(f(x))=f(x)^2-3=(2x+5)^2-3=4x+25+20x-3=24x+25
