Cynthia besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 14ft wide and 23 ft long. she wants to leave a uniform strip of floor around the rug. she can afford to buy 190 square feet of carpeting. what dimensions should the rug have? 5

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
