Answer:

The width is 13, the length is 17


Step-by-step explanation:

You have to write an expression to represent the area of the rectangle. The width can be w, and the length can be 2w-9. Since the parking lot is a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width to get your area. w(2w-9) is 2w^2-9w=221. The only value of w that satisfies this equation when substituted is 13, so that is your width. 2(13)-9 is 26-9 is 17, so the length is 17.

Monica [59]

I'm assuming the question is

A company pays its employees a fixed base salary and a commission based on sales. The scatter plot shows the total earning of an employee of the company (y) based on sales (x):

Plot the ordered pairs 0, 10 and 100, 20 and 200, 30 and 300, 40 and 400, 50 and 500, 60

Which function best represents the data in the scatter plot? (1 point)

y = 0.1x + 10

y = 0.1x − 10

y = 0.1x + 1

y = 0.2x − 1

So thus your answer would be y = 0.1x + 10

The answer is 97, because when you add up 42 and 55 you get 97. Then you subtract that by 180 because a triangles angles add up to 180. 180-97=83. Z=83. Z and y are supplementary to eachother, so therefore 180-83= 97. Supplementary means they add up to 180.
