Answer:
(-2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
~When reflecting a point of the x-axis, the x value (or first number inside the parenthesis) does not change.
The reason the x-value does not change is because you are reflecting over the x-axis, making the point go up or down. That will change the y-value but the x-value only changes if you move to the left or the right. In this case, you can see that the point's x-value is -2, so that will not change. It's current y-value however is -4. When reflecting over an axis, the number that is changing (in this case the y-value) will just be flipped from positive to negative, or vise versa. In this case, -4 will be reflected to be 4, making point C reflected over the x-axis (-2, 4).
Answer:

B. 30
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you multiply by 5 from both sides of equation.

Simplify, to find the answer.

, which is our answer.
Answer:
<h2><em>29.4 length and 21.4 width.</em></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
To fin the dimensions of the pool we need to use the total area of the pool plus the concrete walkway. Lets say that <em>W </em>is the width and <em>L </em>the length. We know that, the walkway has 3 ft wide, this means that the width and length are increased by 6ft (3ft on each side). So, the total area can be expressed like this:
.
In addition, we know that the total area is 970 and the length is 8 ft longer than the width (
). So:

With this quadratic equation we're gonna have to solution, the most reasonable is part of the answer. So, solving the equation we have as solutions:
and
Therefore, the width is 21.4 ft, because the negative number cannot represent distances.
Using the relation between length and width:

<em>Therefore, the dimensions of the pool are 29.4 length and 21.4 width.</em>
quadratic formula:
x = <u>-b ± √(b² - 4ac)</u>
2a
7x² - x = 7
subtract 7 from both sides:
7x² - x - 7 = 0
plug values into the quadratic formula:
x = <u>-(-1) ± √((-1)²- 4(7)(-7))</u>
2(7)
simplify:
x = <u>1 ± √(197)</u>
