Answer:
the answer is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Width (length of shorter side) = 3.5 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
L = 8.5 cm
perimeter, P = 24 cm
2(L+W) = 24
substitute L = 8.5
2(8.5+W) = 24
8.5 + W = 24/2 = 12
W = 12 - 8.5 = 3.5 cm
12x - 8y = -12
6x + 4y = -30
Multiply the 2nd equation by 2, to make the Y coefficients opposite:
6x + 4y = -30 x 2 = 12x + 8y = -60
Now add the two equations:
12x -8y = -12 + 12x +8y = -60
= 24x = -72
Divide bothe sides by 24 to solve for x:
x = -72/24
x = -3
Now replace x with -3 in the first equation to solve for y:
12(-3) - 8y = -12
-36 - 8y = -12
Add 36 to each side:
-8y = 24
Divide both sides by -8 to solve for y:
y = 24 / -8
y = -3
X = -3 and y = -3
(-3,-3)
