Answer:

The length is 13, when the width is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The width is x, when the length is x+2. The area is x(x+2)= x^2+2x.

The perimeter is (x+x+2)*2= (2x+2)*2=4x+4

THe thrre times perimeter is 3(4x+4)= 12x+12

x^2+2x= 12x+12-1

x^2+2x-12x-11=0

x^2-10x-11=0

x=-1 (not suitable); x=11 - the width

The length is 11+2=13

Y=x<br> y=-6x–14<br><br> (substitution method)
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The solution is the point (-2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=x ----> equation A

y=-6x-14 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

x=-6x-14

Solve for x

6x+x=-14\\7x=-14\\x=-2

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in the equation A

y=x

so

y=-2

therefore

The solution is the point (-2,-2)
