So legnt=l
width=w
l=-7+3w
l=3w-7

area=66
area=legnth times width or
area=lw

subisutte
area=lw
l=3w-7
66=(3w-7)(w)
66=3w^2-7w
subtrac 66 from both sides
0=3w^2-7w-66
factor
HOW TO
multiply 3 and -66=-198
find what 2 numbers add up to -7 and multiply to get -198
the numbers area 11 and -18
so
3w^2-18w+11w-66=0
factor
(3w^2-18w)+(11w-66)=0
(3w)(w-6)+(11)(w-6)=0
factor using distributive (ab+ac=a(b+c))

(3w+11)(w-6)=0
set them to zero
3w+11=0
subtract 11
3w=-11
legnths cannot be negative so we discard this

w-6=0
add 6
w=6

width=6
legnth=3w-7
length=3(6)-7
legnt=18-7
legnth=11


width=6
legnth=11

A suitcase measures 24 inches long and 18 inches high, what is the diagonal length of the suitcase?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The diagonal is 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a rectangular suitcase (with right angles), we can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this

a² + b² = c²

so we plug our two values to find the diagonal (hypotenuse)

24² + 18² = c²

576 + 324 = c²

900 = c²

c = √900

c = 30

The diagonal is 30 inches

pH = f(x) = -log₁₀x

1. Graphs

I used Excel to calculate the pH values and draw the graphs (see the Figure).

f(x) and f(x) +1 are plotted against the left-hand axis, while f(x+ 1) is plotted against the expanded right-hand axis.

The points at which pH = 0 and pH = 1 are indicated by the large red dots.

2. x = 0.5

When x = 0.5, pH ≈0.30. The point is indicated by the red diamond.

3. Transformations

(a) ƒ(x) = -log(x) + 1

This function has no y-intercept, because log(0) is undefined.

(b) ƒ(x +1) = -log(x + 1)

f(0) = -log(0 + 1) = -log(1) = 0

This function has a y-intercept at (0,0).

hope this helps please mark me brainliest!

What is this please help I need this completed
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

angles 3 and 4 both equal a 90 degree angle or bisect a 90 degree angle.

angle 5 is 44-degrees because it is complementary or vertical to the 44 degree angle.

x=32 because it is on the same line as the 44-degree angle and a line is 180 so 180-44=136 and to get the rest of x you would do the equation backwards so 136 divided by 4 is 34 and 36-2=32

angle a is 136 described above.

angle b, because it is on the same line as the 46 degree angle is 180-46=134

now im pooped :(
