her resolution is incorrect because it's 6 times x=48. so to get rid of of the six you have to divide it on both sides, so x can be alone. and that's will only have one solution which is x=8

Can someone solve this for me?

well, we know it's a rectangle, so that means the sides JK = IL and JI = KL, so

$\stackrel{JK}{3x+21}~~ = ~~\stackrel{IL}{6y}\implies 3(x+7)=6y\implies x+7=\cfrac{6y}{3} \\\\\\ x+7=2y\implies \boxed{x=2y-7} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{JI}{6y-6}~~ = ~~\stackrel{KL}{2x+20}\implies 6(y-1)=2(x+10)\implies \cfrac{6(y-1)}{2}=x+10 \\\\\\ 3(y-1)=x+10\implies 3y-3=x+10\implies \stackrel{\textit{substituting from the 1st equation}}{3y-3=(2y-7)+10} \\\\\\ 3y-3=2y+3\implies y-3=3\implies \blacksquare~~ y=6 ~~\blacksquare ~\hfill \blacksquare~~ \stackrel{2(6)~~ - ~~7}{x=5} ~~\blacksquare$
