Answer:
Dimensions of the original rectangle:
Length = 19 cm
Width = 11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Length = x
Width = y
Original rectangle:
2(Length + width) = 60
2x + 2y = 60
New rectangle has same length with original rectangle but half of the width of the original rectangle when folded
Length = x
Width = 1/2y
2(Length + 1/2width) = 49
2x + y = 49
2x + 2y = 60 (1)
2x + y = 49 (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate x
2y - y = 60 - 49
y = 11
Substitute y = 11 into (2)
2x + y = 49
2x + 11 = 49
2x = 49 - 11
2x = 38
x = 38/2
x = 19
Dimensions of the original rectangle:
Length = 19 cm
Width = 11 cm

X + y = 17
x - y = 29
x = 17 - y
x - y = 29
x = 17 - y
17 - y - y = 29
x = 17 - y
17 - 2y = 29
x = 17 - y
- 2y = 29 - 17
x = 17 - y
-2y = 12
x = 17 - y
y = -6
x = 17 - (-6)
y = -6
x = 17 + 6
y = -6
x = 23
y = -6
