Answer:

1. Dave worked for 34 hours.

2. Perimeter of the rectangle is 172 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determination of the hours Dave worked.

Let D represent Dave.

Let M represent Mike.

Let J represent John.

Tota time worked by Dave, Mike and John is 56 hours. This can be written as:

D + M + J = 56 ..... (1)

Dave worked 6 more than 4 times as many hours as Mike. This can written as:

D = 6 + 4M .....(2)

John worked 6 less than 3 times as many hours as Mike. This can be written as:

J = 3M – 6 ........ (3)

Substituting the value of F and J into equation 1, we have:

D + M + J = 56

D = 6 + 4M

J = 3M – 6

6 + 4M + M + 3M – 6 = 56

6 – 6 + 4M + M + 3M = 56

8M = 56

Divide both side by 8

M = 56/8

M = 7

Substitute the value of M into equation (2) to obtain the value of D.

D = 6 + 4M

M = 7

D = 6 + 4(7)

D = 6 + 28

D = 34

Therefore, Dave worked for 34 hours .

2. Determination of the perimeter.

Length (L) = 64 cm

Width (W) = 22 cm

Perimeter (P) =?

P = 2(L + W)

P = 2 (64 + 22)

P = 2 (86)

P = 172 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 172 cm

Answer:

1.a=2

2.  C  x=2  and x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the quadratic function is  

ax^2 +bx+c

so  we need to rewrite the function to be in this form

2x^2 -10 = 7x

Subtract 7x from each side

2x^2 -7x-10 = 7x-7x

2x^2 -7x-10 = 0

a =2, b= -7  c=-10


2.  The quadratic formula is

-b ± sqrt(b^2 -4ac)

----------------------------

2a


2x^2 + 2x=12

Lest get the equation in proper form

2x^2 + 2x-12 = 12-12

2x^2 +2x-12 =0

a=2  b=2 c=-12

Lets substitute what we know

-2 ± sqrt(2^2 -4(2)(-12))

----------------------------

2(2)

-2 ± sqrt(4+96)

----------------------------

2(2)

-2 ± sqrt(100)

----------------------------

4

-2 ± 10

----------------------------

4

-2 + 10               -2-10

-----------   and  --------------

4                             4

8/4   and -12/4

If line segment AB represents ​25%, what is the length of a line segment that is​ 100%?
kicyunya [14]

If I am correctly understanding the question, I think the length of the line segment would be 4AB

Step-by-step explanation:

25% = 1/4

AB = 1/4

100% = 4/4

AB*4 = 4AB

Multiply AB by 4 to find the value that 100% would equal, resulting in 4AB.
