Answer:
Richard is older
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up an inequality for both statements.
Let r equal Richard's age and s equal Sylvia's age.
"I am older than my wife."
Since Richard is speaking, the inequality would look like this:
r > s
This means Richard is older than Sylvia.
"I am younger than my husband."
Since Sylvia is speaking, the inequality would look like this:
s < r
This means that Sylvia is younger than Richard.
We can flip one inequality to "see" them from the same perspective.
Let's use s < r
To make it so that we can see the relationship from Richard's perspective, flip the entire inequality.
s < r
to
r > s
The inequality from the first quote is identical to this one!
Therefore, Richard is older than Sylvia.
It looks like the differential equation is

Check for exactness:

As is, the DE is not exact, so let's try to find an integrating factor <em>µ(x, y)</em> such that

*is* exact. If this modified DE is exact, then

We have

Notice that if we let <em>µ(x, y)</em> = <em>µ(x)</em> be independent of <em>y</em>, then <em>∂µ/∂y</em> = 0 and we can solve for <em>µ</em> :

The modified DE,

is now exact:

So we look for a solution of the form <em>F(x, y)</em> = <em>C</em>. This solution is such that

Integrate both sides of the first condition with respect to <em>x</em> :

Differentiate both sides of this with respect to <em>y</em> :

Then the general solution to the DE is

w is the width and it is the independent variable. You can pick any positive whole number you want (within reason of course; you can't go to infinity or go beyond some set boundary). Whatever you picked for w, the expression 2w-5 will be dependent on it. So the length is dependent on the width.
For instance, if the width is w = 10 feet, then 2w-5 = 2*10-5 = 20-5 = 15 feet is the length. The choice of 10 feet for the width directly affects the length being 15 feet.
