1) One square has a side length that is 1 foot greater than that of a smaller square. If the combined area of the two squares is 113 square feet, find the length of the side of the smaller square.

2) A frame for a picture is 2.5 inches wide. The picture enclosed by the frame is 5 inches longer than it is wide. If the area of the picture itself is 300 square inches, determine the outer dimensions of the frame.

I don t know how to do these problems as I ve recently switched schools and the subject is very new to me. Please show your work and the answer. Thank you!
