Answer:
x=-1, y=1. (-1, 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
5y-6=x
y=-x
-----------
5(-x)-6=x
-5x-6=x
-5x-x=6
-6x=6
x=6/-6
x=-1
y=-(-1)=1
Perimeter is 24.
Length is 4 greater than the width.
Let's use 'x' for width
we can write this as x+4 + x+4 + x + x
x+4 being the width+4 and x being the width
There are 4 sides to a rectangle so you are adding 4 values
Two length and two widths
so we can then combine the two lengths to make 2x+8
and then combine the two widths to make 2x
Then put it together. 2x+2x+8= 4x+8
4x+8=24
Subtract 8 from both sides
4x=16
divide both sides by 4
x=4
The width is 4.
Your answer would be on eof the three
15/8
1.875
1 7/8
