The figure above shows the lengths of thesides of a rectangle in cm. find the valuesof x and y and then the area of the rectangle.sides: top= 3x - yleft= 3y + 4bottom= 2x + yright= 2x - 3 use both methods, elimination and substitution, if possible.

Suppose that the price p, in dollars, and the number of sales, x, of a certain item follow the equation 4 p plus 4 x plus 2 pxequals56. suppose also that p and x are both functions of time, measured in days. find the rate at which x is changing when xequals2, pequals6, and startfraction dp over dt endfraction equals1.5.
