Answer:
b=9,a=12
Step-by-step explanation:
I solved by substitution:
b = 3/4a ---> plug this into the other equation
a + b = 21 is now a + 3/4a = 21
Reduce: 7/4a = 21
a = 12
Now solve for b:
b=3/4a is now b=3/4(12)
b=9

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the rectangle. The the width is (4x+2) and the area is ...
x(4x+2) = 342
2x² +x - 171 = 0 . . . . . divide by 2, rearrange to standard form
(2x +19)(x -9) = 0 . . . factor
x = -19/2 or +9 . . . . . the length is the positive solution: 9
(4x+2) = 4(9) +2 = 38 . . . . find the width from the length
The length of the rectangle is 9 meters. The width is 38 meters.
