Answer:

length 15 width 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Then the length can be represented by the following expression: (x + 6)

Since area is equal to length times width, we can write the following equation for the area:

A = length * width

135 = (w + 6) * w

Now we can solve for w after using the distributive property and factoring:

135 = (w + 6) * w

135 = w^2 + 6w

0 = w^2 + 6w - 135

This factors to:

0 = (w + 15) (w -9)

w = -15 OR w = 9

Solve for x and y
BigorU [14]
You can use elimination
7x - 3y = 4
-10x + 3y = 2
Add both equations
-3x = 6, x = -2
Plug in -2 for x in one equation
7(-2) - 3y = 4
-14 - 3y = 4
-3y = 18, y = -6
Solution: x = -2, y = -6
