Question 194710
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


Let <b><i>x</i></b> represent the length and let <b><i>y</i></b> represent the width, then:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x + y = 84]


and


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x - y = 19]


Solve the system (all set up for the elimination method, just add the equations).  Once you have the values for length and width, take the product to find the area.
