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

Fill in the table using this function rule.<br> y = 10x + 1
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Y=10x+1
x=-1→y=10(-1)+1=-10+1→y=-9
x=0→y=10(0)+1=0+1→y=1
x=1→y=10(1)+1=10+1→y=11
x=5→y=10(5)+1=50+1→y=51

Help me plz I can’t figure it out
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

m = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The context is very important, the 'm' represents the minutes late the parents are and from this we can eliminate some options :

- The last one because then a parent would drop their child off earlier

- The first one and the third one because it is too long

Harold wrote this equation to model the level of water in a pool over time. The variable x represents time in hours. f(x) = 3,50
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool was 3,500 units

The water was 2,600 units high after 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function that models the water level is

f(x)=3,500-225x

where x represents time in hours.

The function represents a straight line that has slope m=-225

Since the slope is negative, it means the water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool can found when we put x=0 into the function.

f(0)=3,500-225(0)


f(0)=3,500, hence the initial level is 3,500.


To determine the level of water in the pool after 14 hours, we put x=14 into the equation to get;

f(14)=3,500-225(14)

f(14)=3,500-3150


f(14)=350


To determine the water level after 4 hours we put x=4

f(4)=3,500-225(4)

f(4)=3,500-900

f(14)=2,600
