Question

a rectangle has dimensions of (3y+2)cm as the length and (x+7)cm as the other length and 2x cm as the breadth and (x+y+1)cm as the other breadth find the values of x and y and the dimensions​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4 cm

y = 3 cm

Dimension is 11 by 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the values of x and y and their dimension is shown below:

3y + 2 = x + 7

3y - x = 5.......(i)

2x = x + y + 1

x - y = 1...........(ii)

Now solve these both equations

2y = 6

y = 3 cm

And,

x - y = 1

x - 3 = 1

x = 4 cm

Now their dimension is

= x + 7

= 4 + 7 = 11

And,

= x + y + 1

= 4 + 3 + 1

= 8

So, 11 by 8
