3x + 4 where x represents the width

P = 72 m

trial and error:

1.   3(20) + 4 = 64

2.  3(23) + 4 = 73

3.  3(22.67) + 4 = 72.01 --- round answer to nearest decimal place

Ares of a rectangular floor of your house is Ax+5x-2. if the length is x+2 units, find A​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: In the expression of area the first term should be Ax^2.

It is given that area of a rectangular floor of your house is Ax^2+5x-2 and the length is (x+2) units.

We know that, area of a rectangle is

Area=length\times width

Since length of the rectangle is (x+2), therefore (x+2) is a factor of Ax^2+5x-2 and the value of Ax^2+5x-2 is 0 at x=-2.

A(-2)^2+5(-2)-2=0

4A-10-2=0

4A-12=0

4A=12

Divide both sides by 4.

A=4

Therefore, the value of A is 4.

Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. The combined cost of one advance ticket and one sam
avanturin [10]
Let "a" and "s" represent the costs of advance and same-day tickets, respectively. Your problem statement gives you two relations.
.. a + s = 35 . . . . . the combined cost of one of each is 35
.. 15a +40s = 900 . . total paid for this combination of tickets was 900

There are many ways to solve these equations. You've probably been introduced to "substitution" and "elimination" (or "addition"). Using substitution for "a", we have
.. a = 35 -s
.. 15(35 -s) +40s = 900 . . substitute for "a"
.. 25s +525 = 900 . . . . . . . simplify
.. 25s = 375 . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 525
.. s = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 25
Then
.. a = 35 -15 = 20

The price of an advance ticket was 20.
The price of a same-day ticket was 15.

Veseljchak [2.6K]
Parallel lines have the same slope. Thus, the slope of a line parallel to a line that has a slope of -8 would be -8. Hope this helps! :)
