The width of the deck to cover the backyard is 7 feet.

<h3>Area </h3>

Area is the amount of space occupied by a two dimensional object.

Length = 28 ft.,

width = 14 ft.

For width x, length of and  = 28 + x + x = 2x + 28, width of pool and deck and  = 14 + x + x = 2x + 14

Area of pool and deck = (2x + 28)(2x + 14) = 1176

4x² + 84x + 392 = 1176

4x² + 84x - 784 = 0

x = 7 ft.

The width of the deck  to cover the backyard is 7 feet.

How do I determine whether 3x-4y+7=3y is a linear equation and how do I write it in standard form?? (I learned this already but
Pani-rosa [81]

Equation of the straight line can be given in more form. The most common forms are implicit (general or standard) form ax+by+c=0 and explicit form y=kx+i, where k is line coefficient and l is cut which line made on the y axis. If k>0 then the angle that takes straight line  with the positive direction to the x axis is sharp and if k<0 then the angle that takes straight line with positive direction to the x axis is obtuse. In you case  you only need to form one monomial with variable y in the given equation in the following way: 3x-4y+7=3y => add to both side (-3y) and you get 3x-4y-3y+7=3y-3y finally we get implicit or general 3x-7y+7=0. If is it necessary to transform from the implicit into the explicit form we will do this in the following way: 3x-7y+7=0 add to both side expression (-3x-7) => 3x-3x-7y+7-7=-3x-7 => divide both side with (-7) => y= (-3x-7)/ (-7) => finally we get y=3/7 x + 1 ( in our case coefficient of direction k=3/7 and the cut which line is made3 on the y axis l=1). Its display in the decartes coordinate system is given in one of the already given answers.

Plz help what is 8 t.=_______lb.?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

16,000 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every ton, it equals 2,000 pounds. So to find how many pounds is in 8 tons, just multiply 2,000 by 8. This would give you 16,000 pounds!

This is of course using the U.S. tons, so if you want to convert it for metric tons it would be 17,632 since 1 metric ton = 2204.

I hope this was able to help!

mash [69]

Answer:

Whole numbers are also integers. There are other integers which are the opposites of the whole numbers (−1, −2, −3, ...). These negative numbers lie to the left of 0 on the number line. Integers are the whole numbers and their opposites.
