X=width of the lake
y=length of the lake.
we set out this system of equiations
x*y=9/20
x=y/5
we solve by sustitution method
(y/5)*y=9/20
y²/5=9/20
y²=(5*9)/ 20
y²=2.25
y=√2.25=1.5

x=y/5
x=1.5/5=0.3

Solution:
width of the lake=0.3 miles
lenght of the lake=1.5 miles

Translate the following word phrase into an algebraic expression: nine times five less than twice x.
bagirrra123 [75]

The given statement is "nine times five less than twice x".

So, twice of x can be written as 2x and nine times five is 9*5.

Now 9*5 less 2x means we need to take out 9*5 from 2x.

Hence, this statement will be converted into an algebraic expression as follows:

2x-9*5

type the equation that shows the relationship between the variables in this chart: x: 1,2,3,4,5 and y: 7,14,21,28,35
BlackZzzverrR [31]
It seems as though when the x value is multiplied by 7, you result in the y values (ex. 1*7 = 7). So you could say y = 7x.
