let L = length and let W = width.

Use the equations 2L + 2W = 2750

and L = 5W + 15

Then do the steps as follows -

1. Plug the equation for what L equals into the first equation

2(5W+15) + 2W = 2750

2. Then distribute the 2

10W + 30 + 2W = 2750

3. Then add like terms

12W + 30 = 2750

4. Then subtract 30 from both sides

12W = 2720

5. Divide by 12 on both sides

W = 226.67

6. Then plug that into the second equation

L = 5(226.67) + 15

L = 1148.35 should be the answer

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

38 total students

5 like neither one, so 38 - 5 = 33

22 plus 13 is 35, but only 33 students like one of them, so 35 - 33 = 2 extra votes, which means 2 like both.
