Given/equations formed from text:
I: l=w+3
II: A=l*w
III: new area B=(l-2)*w
IV: B=A-30

substitute l in II with I to remove l:
II': A=l*w=
(w+3)*w=
w^2+3w

substitute l in III with I to remove l:
III': B=(l-2)*w=
(w+3-2)*w=
(w+1)*w=
w^2+w

substitute A and B from II' and III' into IV:
B=A-30
w^2+w=w^2+3w-30
30=2w
w=15

insert w=15 into I:
l=15+3=18
->
A) dimensions of full size rectangle are width 15 and length 18
dimensions of reduced size rectangle are width 15 and length 16

B) full size: 15*18=10*18+5*18=180+90=270cm^2
reduced size: 15*16=10*16+5*16=160+80=240cm^2

Jun used x milliliters, or 90% percent, of his favorite bottle of hot sauce.
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The volume of the full bottle of Jun's favorite hot sauce in ml is \frac{10x}{9}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jun used x milliliters, or 90% percent, of his favorite bottle of hot sauce.

So, to find the volume of a full bottle of Jun's favorite hot sauce in milliliters, we can use the unitary method.

Then, 90% of the full bottle sauce is equal to x ml.

So, 1% of the full bottle sauce is equal to \frac{x}{90} ml.

Therefore, 100% of the full bottle sauce is equal to \frac{x}{90}\times 100 = \frac{10x}{9} ml.  

Therefore, the volume of the full bottle of Jun's favorite hot sauce in ml is \frac{10x}{9}. (Answer)

What is the slope-intercept form of the function described by this table?
Andru [333]

Answer:

<em>y = - 3x + 4 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

y - y_{1} = m( x - x_{1} ) Point-slope form

y = mx + b  Point-intercept form

(1, 1)

(2, - 2)

m = (- 2 - 1 ) / (2 - 1) = - 3

y - 1 = - 3( x - 1 )

<em>y = - 3x + 4</em>
