The other factor is (y - 3). If you multiply the two terms together, you will end up with

:
So square feet is area which is legnth times width or area=lw or a=lw
width=w=2 2/4
2/4=1/2
w=2 1/2=5/2
a=lw
11 11/16=187/16
187/16=l(5/2)
multiply both sides by 2/5 to clear the fraction (1/2 times 2/1=2/2=1)
374/80=legnth
simplify
374/80=187/40=4 27/40=legnth
legnh must be less than 5 and 4 and 27/40 is less than 5 so it will fit

Answer:multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle's Perimeter is P=2(w+l)
where w and l are width and length respectively
34=2(w+l)
17=w+l
w=17-l
now A=wxl
A=(17-l)xl
A=17l-l^2
30=17l-l^2
l^2-17l-30=0
now solve for l
