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

alexandr1967 [171]
<span>"For which value of k does the system have no real number solutions?"
The answer is 4, because 4+4</span>≠16.
<span>
"For which value of k does the system have one real number solution?"
</span>The answer is -0.25, because the linear line because tangent with the parent function.


<span>"For which value of k does the system have two real number solutions?"
</span>The answer is 2, because the linear function intercepts the parent function 2 times.
