We want to find area xygrandh01 wrote:24. What is the area of a rectangular
surface that has length x feet and
width y feet ?
(1) y is the reciprocal of x.
(2) The perimeter of the rectangular
surface is 5 feet.
OA is A
1.
y is the reciprocal of x means that y = 1/x
area = xy = x * 1/x = 1
sufficient
2.
2x + 2y = 5
2(x+y) = 5
x+y = 2.5
x and y could have any value
insufficient
ans=a
