9 is to 36 as 10 is to 40 -is how you should write the proportion 9:36 = 10:40 using words.
L=2W+2
W=(L-2)/2
A=LW, using W from above makes this
A=L(L-2)/2
2A=L^2-2L
L^2-2L-2A=0, given A=84
L^2-2L-168=0
(L-14)(L+12)=0, since L>0
L=14
The length of the rug is 14 ft
(W=(L-2)/2=6 ft)
Step-by-step explanation:
negative because it's a negative number until it gets a full ratio unit or positive unit
Answer:
Multiply both sides by -2 and reverse the inequality symbol
Step-by-step explanation:
since it is division you want to make it multiplication so that you can get the answer easier
-1/2w<12
it cancels out the -1/2 than just multiply 12 and -2 you get -24
w > -24
