Answer:

The width is 20.625 and the length is 19.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2 1/2 + w = length

Let w = width

Equation:

2 1/2 + w + w = 80                     Combine liked terms

2 1/2 + 2w = 80                    

-2 1/2         -2 1/2                        Subtract 2 1/2 from both sides

2w  =   77.5

÷ 2     ÷ 2                                    Divide 2 from both sides

w = 41.25

Length:

2 1/2 + 41.25 = 165/4 or 38.75

Width:

41.25

41.25/2 = 20.625

38.75/2 = 19.375

The question ask to find and compute the possible formula for the function below where as A = (-1,32) and B= (1,8).  In my own calculation and further computation about the problem and also following the rule of general exponential function, the formula would be y = a*(b^x). I hope this would help
