Ilya [14]

Answer:

So it means

l = w + 5

A = lw

36 = (w + 5)w

w^{2}  + 5w = 36

Next, 9 minutes (45%) and 18 minutes(36%).

10 minutes (50%) and 20 minutes (40%). This is the difference.

Y=3x-2 what is the value of y? when y=-1/3
Olin [163]
Oddly enough, when y=-1/3, the value of y is -1/3.

When x = -1/3, the value of y is
.. y = 3*(-1/3) -2
.. = -1 -2
.. = -3

When x = -1/3, the value of y is -3.
