Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle = x

As length is 5 inches longer than width, we have to add 5 to width

Length = x + 5

Perimeter of ractangle = 56 in

2* (length + width) = 56

2*( x + 5 + x) = 56

2* (2x + 5)    = 56

Use distributive property: a*(b +c) =(a*b) + (a * c)

2*2x + 2*5   = 56

4x  + 10 = 56

Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 56- 10

4x = 46

Divide both sides by 4

x = 46/4

x = 11.5

Width = 11.5 in

length = 11.5 + 5

            = 16.5 in

15. 3x – 4y = -1<br> 5x + 2y = 7
never [62]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = -1

5x + 2y = 7

If we multiply the whole second equation by 2, we get:

10x + 4y = 14

Adding this to the first equation:

10x + 4y + 3x - 4y = 14 - 1

13x = 13

x = 1

Applying this to the second equation:

5 (1) + 2y = 7

2y = 2

y = 1
