It doesn't add up to 360 degrees
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
First add 1/5 from both sides to get 2/3x > 6/5. This can then be simplified to x > 18/10. 18/10 is the same as 9/5. And 9/5 is also 1 4/5.
Hope it helps!

For B you Divide 14 by 9
Answer:
(x, y) = (7, 4) meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the floor without the removal is x^2, so with the smaller square removed, it is x^2 -y^2.
The perimeter of the floor is the sum of all side lengths, so is 4x +2y.
The given dimensions tell us ...
x^2 -y^2 = 33
4x +2y = 36
From the latter equation, we can write an expression for y:
y = 18 -2x
Substituting this into the first equation gives ...
x^2 -(18 -2x)^2 = 33
x^2 -(324 -72x +4x^2) = 33
3x^2 -72x + 357 = 0 . . . . write in standard form
3(x -7)(x -17) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions to this equation are x=7 and x=17. However, for y > 0, we must have x < 9.
y = 18 -2(7) = 4
The floor dimension x is 7 meters; the inset dimension y is 4 meters.
