Simplify

so
Michelle didn't multiply the sum of length and width by 2
895/2=447.5
447.5-177=270.5
447.5+177=654.5
diamond has 270.5
and
jenny has 654.5
Plug in x and y into the equations and see which one comes out true...
Also, K12 person huh?
2(books)*$3.50=$7.00
4(books)*$5.25=$21.00
Total bill=$34.00
