Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of multiple choice questions
y = number of short response questions
x + y = 15
5x + 10y = 100
=>
x + 2y = 20
let's subtract the first from the second equation :
x + 2y = 20
- x + y = 15
--------------------
0 y = 5
x + y = 15
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
to graph you need to consider both equations as linear functions. and you need to transform them into e.g. a slope intercept form : y = ax + b
a is the slope, b is the y- intercept.
x + y = 15
transforms to
y = -x + 15
this line goes e.g. through the points (0, 15) and (1, 14).
and
x + 2y = 20
transforms to
2y = -x + 20
y = -x/2 + 10
this line goes e.g through (0, 10) and (2, 9).
the crossing point of both lines is the solution and should therefore be the point (10, 5) as calculated above.
Answer: w= 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
11/15=8/15 -w
-W= 8/15 -11/15
-w= 8-11/15 =-3/15
-w=-3/15
w=3/15= 1/5
We have this equation:
So, we need to solve this equation for L. Then we sum -2W in each member of the equation, like this:
Then, dividing the equation by 2:
Finally, let's order this equation:
Answer:A≈153.94in²

Answer:
A rectangle is defined by its length = L, and its width = W.
So the perimeter of the of the rectangle can be written as:
Perimeter = 2*L + 2*W.
In this case, we want to leave the perimeter fixed, so we have:
24ft = 2*L + 2*W.
Now, we do not have any other restrictions, so to know the different dimensions now we can write this as a function, by isolating one of the variables.
2*L = 24ft - 2*W
L = 12ft - W.
or:
L(W) = 12ft - W.
Such that:
W must be greater than zero (because we can not have negative or zero width).
And W must be smaller than 12ft (because in that case we would have zero or negative length)
Then the possible different dimensions are given by:
L(W) = 12ft - W
0ft < W < 12ft.
