So you would have to set up a equation to find the length and width. The equation would be w+(w+2)=16

that simplifies to 2w+2=16

2w=14

w=7

the width is 7

the length is 9

The sum of two integers is 74. The larger is 26 more than twice the smaller. Find the two integers.

hodyreva [135]

To find the answer,we can set up two equations:

Let the integer be x and y seperately,and x be the larger number:

x+y=74
y=74-x....(1)

x-2y=26...(2)

Put (1) into (2):

x-2(74-x)=26
x-148+2x=26
3x=26+148
x=174/3
x=58

Put the above answer into (1):

y=74-58
y=16

Therefore,the answer is x=58, y=16.

Hope it helps!
