Multiply the first equation by -1
-3x-y=-4
2x+y=5
Add them up
-x=1
So x=-1
And y=7
So the first option is correct
Let the faculties be X and the number of students be Y.
X/Y = 17/3
3X= 17Y
X=17Y/3
Let that be equation 1
We also know that X+Y = 740. Let it be equation 2
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2
(17Y/3)+Y= 740
20Y/3 = 740
Y=111
Since the total is 740, then X equal 740-111 =629.
The number of faculties is 111 and the number of students is 629.
P = perimeter = 2L + 2W = 86 cm. Also, L = W + 4. Subst. W + 4 for L,
P = 2(W + 4) + 2W = 86 cm. Then 2W + 8 + 2W = 86 cm, and 4W = 78 cm.
Finally solving for W, W = (78 cm)/4, or 19.5 cm.
If W = 19.5 cm, then L = W + 4 cm = 19.5 cm + 4 cm = 23.5 cm
The rectangle's dimensions are 19.5 cm by 23.5 cm.
