Answer:
x = all real numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x minus 8 = negative x + 4 (x minus 2)
3x - 8 = -x + 4(x - 2)
3x - 8 = -x + 4x - 8
3x - 8 = 3x - 8
3x - 3x = -8 + 8
0 = 0
Since the result is a true statement, but 0 = 0, x is equivalent to all real numbers.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a = 16.733
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 9^2 = 19^2
a^2 = 19^2 - 9^2
a^2 = 361-81
a^2 =280
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(280)
a = 16.73320053
Rounding to the nearest thousandth
a = 16.733
Answer:
$111222.02
Step-by-step explanation:
This year = Last year * (100%-9%)
This year = 122222 * 91% = 111222.02
Answer:
a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide . if both its dimensions are increased 4 m , its area is increaed by 88 m squared make a sketch and find its original dimensions of the original rectangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l = the original length of the original rectangle
Let w = the original width of the original rectangle
From the description of the problem, we can construct the following two equations
l=2*w (Equation #1)
(l+4)*(w+4)=l*w+88 (Equation #2)
Substitute equation #1 into equation #2
(2w+4)*(w+4)=(2w*w)+88
2w^2+4w+8w+16=2w^2+88
collect like terms on the same side of the equation
2w^2+2w^2 +12w+16-88=0
4w^2+12w-72=0
Since 4 is afactor of each term, divide both sides of the equation by 4
w^2+3w-18=0
The quadratic equation can be factored into (w+6)*(w-3)=0
Therefore w=-6 or w=3
w=-6 can be rejected because the length of a rectangle can't be negative so
w=3 and from equation #1 l=2*w=2*3=6
I hope that this helps. The difficult part of the problem probably was to construct equation #1 and to factor the equation after performing all of the arithmetic operations.
Answer:
18.66 minutes or 18 minutes 39.6 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
23 x .19 = 4.37
23 - 4.37 = 18.66 minutes
