Answer:
The length is 8 inches and the width is 3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width.
The length can be represented by 2w + 2
Use the area formula, A = lw, and plug in the area and the expressions for the length and width:
A = lw
24 = (2w + 2)(w)
Simplify and solve for w:
24 = 2w² + 2w
2w² + 2w - 24
Divide everything by 2:
w² + w - 12
Factor:
(w + 4)(w - 3)
Set equal to 0 and solve for each factor:
w + 4 = 0
w = -4
w - 3 = 0
w = 3
Since the width cannot be negative, the width has to be 3.
Next, find the length by plugging in 3 as w:
2w + 2
2(3) + 2
= 8
So, the length is 8 inches and the width is 3 inches
I’m not extremely good at math but I think you need to make -x-y=1 into y=mx+b form and then solve your new equation!
