Width = W
Length = 12W - 1
Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 37
In the perimeter equation substitute the length equation in for L to get the equation in terms of W
2L + 2W = 37
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37
Distribute
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37
24W - 2 + 2w = 37
26W = 39
W = 3/2 = 1.5
Width = 1.5
Lastly, solve for length
L = 12W - 1
L = (12 • 1.5) - 1
L = 18 - 1
L = 17
Length = 17
Use an app called Socratic, take a photo of the questions you're stuck on, then it will help you in stages and show you the answer.
X=2
subtract 7 from both sides
The average rate of change between two input values is the total change of the function values (output values) divided by the change in the input values.
