Given:
pool length : 10 yards
pool width : 8 yards
Area = 10 yds * 8 yds = 80 yd²
(10 + 2x)(8 + 2x) = 120
10(8 + 2x) + 2x(8+2x) = 120
80 + 20x + 16x + 4x² = 120
4x² + 36x + 80 - 120 = 0
4x² + 36x - 40 = 0
4(x² + 9x - 10) = 0
4(x + 10)(x - 1) = 0
x + 10 = 0
x = -10
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
the width of the deck is 1 yard
<span>x = number of domestic stamps
y = number of foreign stamps
Malik
collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps.
=> x + y = 212
he has 34 more
domestic stamps than foreign stamps.
=> x = y + 34
which
equation represents the total number of stamps malik collected?
x + y = 212
which
equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic
stamps malik collected?
x - y = 34
which system of linear equations represents the
situation?
x + y = 212
x - y = 34

Answer:
5:1
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we know that 20 fries were large, and 4 were small. So, we just set it up as 20:4 <em>(for every 20 large fries, there are 4 small ones)</em>. However, it needs to be simplified which results in 5:1.
Hope I helped!!
Answer:
This problem is incomplete, we do not know the fraction of the students that have a dog and also have a cat. Suppose we write the problem as:
"In Mrs.Hu's classroom, 4/5 of the students have a dog as a pet. X of the students who have a dog as a pet also have cat as a pet. If there are 45 students in her class, how many have both a dog and a cat as pets?"
Where X must be a positive number smaller than one, now we can solve it:
we know that in the class we have 45 students, and 4/5 of those students have dogs, so the number of students that have a dog as a pet is:
N = 45*(4/5) = 36
And we know that X of those 36 students also have a cat, so the number of students that have a dog and a cat is:
M = 36*X
now, we do not have, suppose that the value of X is 1/2 ("1/2 of the students who have a dog also have a cat")
M = 36*(1/2) = 18
So you can replace the value of X in the equation and find the number of students that have a dog and a cat as pets.
Answer:
Negative
Step-by-step explanation:
If both are negative, they can't grow when you add them. If I owe someone 3 dollars, then I owe them 3 more, I don't owe them 0, I owe them 6. The equation would be My amount of money-3-3
