Answer:

XY = 8 and YZ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If XY and YZ are on the one line, we can write

XY + YZ = 28

(2x+2) + (9x - 7) = 28

2x+2 + 9x - 7 = 28

11x - 5 = 28

11x = 33

x = 3

XY = 2x+2 = 2*3 + 2 = 8

YZ = 9x - 7 = 9*3 - 7 = 27 - 7 = 20

What is the length of one side of 400 sq in

This is a square, and so all the sides will be the same measurements. Note that you are given an area, so you'll have to root the total area to get a side.

√400 = 20

One side's measurements is 20 in
