Find the length of side VW

46units

Step-by-step explanation:

let Length(L) = 4y + 3

Width (W) = 5y + 1

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

but perimeter = 179 units

hence: 170 = 2(4y + 3) + 2(5y + 1)

170 = 8y + 6 + 10y + 2

170 = 18y + 8

170 - 8 = 18y

162 = 18y

y = 9 units

Therefore:

VW = L = (5y +1)

= 5(9) + 1 = 46units

no, the equation would be invalid since they are both not equal.

step-by-step explanation:

here you got

4y-6+4y 2-9

first, you would simplify the equation on the form.

4y-6+4y 2-9

then, move all the terms that contains a y to the left and all the other terms to the right.

+4y-4y+-9-6

finally, you will simplify the left and the right side of the equation.

y=-3
