The value of x is 7 because 8/24 = 1/3 so find 1/3 of 21
I know there must be an equation to do this, but there is a simpler way.
Just factor number 72 into two numbers which, when multiplied, equal 72. Two of such numbers are 9 and 8, and you can see that the difference between those two numbers is just 1. So that is the answer to your question - the length of the patio is 9 feet, whereas the width is 8 feet.

Answer:
A and A
the equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where ( h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
y = - 2(x + 3)² + 2 is in this form
with vertex = ( - 3, 2)
To find the y-intercept let x = 0
y = - 2(3)² + 2 = - 18 + 2 = - 16
Similarly
y = - 2(x + 2)² + 2 is in vertex form
vertex = ( - 2 , 2)
x = 0 : y = - 2(2)² + 2 = - 8 + 2 = - 6 ← y- intercept
