Answer:
The length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the yard
The width can be represented by x - 2, since it is 2 less than the length.
Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is width
Plug in the expressions and perimeter:
20 = 2x + 2(x - 2)
Solve for x:
20 = 2x + 2x - 4
20 = 4x - 4
24 = 4x
6 = x
So, the length is 6. Plug this into x - 2 to find the width
x - 2
6 - 2
= 4
So, the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
Answer: C) 0
The lines are parallel. They never cross. To have a solution, the lines need to intersect. Each intersection is a solution. That's why there are no solutions here. The system is inconsistent.
Note how the slopes are both 1/2 while the y intercepts are different. Parallel lines have equal slopes but different y intercepts.
