By solving a system of equations, we will see that the width is 170ft and the length 275 ft.
<h3>
How to get the dimensions of the base?</h3>
For a rectangle of length x and width y, the perimeter is:
P = 2*(x + y).
Here we know that:
x = 2y - 65ft
p = 890ft = 2(x + y)
So we have a system of equations.
To solve this, we need to replace the first equation into the second one:
890ft = 2(x + y)
890ft = 2(( 2y - 65ft) + y)
Now we can solve this for y.
890ft = 4y - 130ft + 2y
890ft + 130ft = 6y
1020ft/6 = y = 170ft
So the width is 170ft, and we know that:
x = 2y - 65ft = 2*(170ft) - 65ft = 275ft
So the length is 275 ft.

Answer:
f = -5, s = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
F= first number
S= second number
4f - s = -14
f + 3s = -23
3(4f - s = -14)
12f - 3s = -42
+ f + 3s = -23
13f = -65

13
f = -5
4f - s = -14
4(-5) - s = -14
-20 - s = -14
+20 +20
-s = 6

-1
s = -6
