  1. A rectangular tile has length \(4 x \mathrm {~cm}\) and width \(( x + 3 ) \mathrm { cm }\). The area of the rectangle is less than \(112 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }\). By writing down and solving an inequality, determine the set of possible values of \(x\).
  2. A second rectangular tile of length \(4 y \mathrm {~cm}\) and width \(( y + 3 ) \mathrm { cm }\) has a rectangle of length \(2 y \mathrm {~cm}\) and width \(y \mathrm {~cm}\) removed from one corner as shown in the diagram.
