X + y = 10
x - y = 2
add the equations together
2x = 12
x = 6
6 + y = 10
y = 3
7/8 / 11/12. First get the reciprocal of 11/12 (which is 12/11). Then multiply by the reciprocal. 7/8 * 12/11 = 84/88
don't forget to simplify
21/22

Answer:
Two less dogs
Your situation can be defined as x-2, where x was the number of dogs. Since the number of original dogs was not specified, two less dogs is the corrext answer
Answer:
7,11
Step-by-step explanation:
The width is x. x+4= the length. The area is side times side, so it’s
x × (x+4) = 77
We can simplify this to:
x × x + x × 4 = 77
x^2 + 4x = 77
x^2 + 4x - 77 = 0 This is a quadratic equation. So we can solve using the quadratic formula:
x =
->


That’s the positive solution and that’s x, the width. So the width is 7 and the length is 7+4=11
