How much will the insurance company pay for the damage to the car?

answer:

i think $10,000

Step-by-step explanation

Since we're looking at a rectangle, let's consider its perimeter and area formulas.

Perimeter: 2x + 2y (A rectangle has four sides, with two equal sides, so this is x + x + y + y simplified)

Area: (x)(y) (length x breadth so, x times y)

So we have two equations: 2x + 2y = 16 and x*y = 15. Solve simultaneously. Refer to the attached image.
