If the length= v
Then the width=v-2

Area= length x width
48= v(v-2)
48= v^2 -2v
v^2 -2v -48=0
(v-8)(v+6)=0
then v= 8 and v=-6
Since length cannot be negative so v=8
And width=v-2
= 8-2=6

So length= 8 m
Width= 6 m

Answer:

c + 2d = $7.00

2c + 3d = $12.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

<u>Let:</u>

  • c = # of coffees
  • d = # of donuts

1 coffee and 2 donuts cost $7.00

This can be repesented by 1c + 2d = $7.00, or c + 2d = $7.00

2 coffees and 3 donuts cost $12.00

This can be represented by 2c + 3d = $12.00

<u>So, the system is :</u>

c + 2d = $7.00

2c + 3d = $12.00
