L = w - 20

12000 = w × ( w - 20 )
12000 = w^2 - 20w
w^2 - 20w - 12000 = 0
( w - 10 ) ( w - 10 ) = 0

width = 10

kifflom [539]
The value of each winning ticket is an arithmetic series in which T (n) = -5 + 15n or $5 (3n-1). The first winner is 5 (3x1 - 1) = $10. The second winner is 5 (3x2 - 1) = $25. The tenth ticket wins $5 (3x10 - 1) = $5 (29) = $145.

Y=-3x+5 <br> 5x-4y=-3<br> Trying to solve this problem
rodikova [14]
Your answer would be y= 5x/-4 - 3/-4 because you’ll move 5x to the other side of the equal sign then divide -4 to get y by itself

How to solve X + y = 2<br> X - y = 4
SpyIntel [72]
So y+x=2
x-y=4
one way is subsituteion where yousubisutte one of the number for another exg

x-y=4
add y to both sides
x=y+4
subsitute y+4 for x in x+y=2
 y+4+y=2
2y+4=2
subtract 4 from both sides
2y=-2
divide both sides by 2
y=-1
subsiutte
x+y=2
x-1=2
x=3




or elimination

x+y=2
x-y=4
add the two equations and cancel the y terms

x+x+y-y=2+4
2x=6
divide both sides by 2
x==3
subsitute
x+y=2
3+y=2
y=-1


so x=3
y=-1
