Answer:

length = 20

Width = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 6   -------------------(I)

x + y = 34 ------------------(II)

Add equation (I) & (II). So y will be eliminated and you can find the value of x

(I)         x - y = 6

(II)       x + y = 34  {Now add}

        2x      =  40      {Divide both sides by 2}

             x   = 40/2

x = 20

Plugin x = 20 in equation(II)

20 +y = 34

       y = 34 -20

y = 14
