One number is 5 less than a second number. twice the second number is 4 less than 4 times the first. find the two numbers

9 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

One number is 5 less than a second number.

a = b - 5

:

Twice the second number is 8 less than 4 times the first.  

2b = 4a - 8

replace a with (b-5)

2b = 4(b-5) - 8

2b = 4b - 20 - 8

2b - 4b = -28

-2b = -28

b = 14

then

a = 9

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
