The perimeter of a rectangle brownie pan is 50 inches. the lenght of the pan is 5 less than twice the width. write a system of equations to determine the length and width.

The system of equation is,

2 ( x + y ) = 50

x = 2 y - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the length of the rectangular brownie and y represents the width of the rectangular brownie.

Thus, the perimeter of the brownie = 2 ( x + y )

But, According to the question,

Perimeter of the brownie = 50,

2 ( x + y ) = 50

The length of the brownie is 5 less than twice the width,

That is, x = 2 y - 5

Thus, the required system of equation is,

2 ( x + y ) = 50 , x = 2 y - 5

probably .5
