This is Bridge Algebra 2 stuff. Well you see that 2x+y=8 and x-1=y. To slove for y you have to slove for x first to find y. So 2x+x-1=8 ( the reason I did that is because there is a y in that equation and I placed it on that equation) now lets slove this equation for x. So 3x-1=8( I add 2x with x) 3x=9 ( I made -1 a positive one and add it to 8) x=3 ( I divided 9/3 to get 3). Now that you have slove x we will use x to slove for y. So 3-1=y, 2=y. Your answer is y=2.

Horizontal asymptote
vodomira [7]

Answer:

H.A.=4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the bottom equation is factored, you get (x+1)(x-4)

If the V.A. is -1 ( gotten by putting [x+1] equal to zero I'm guessing) then the H.A. can be gotten by putting (x-4) equal to zero.

Also, I graphed it.

length, l = 1.6w ...eqn 1

area, a = l × w ...eqn 2

subst for l in eqn 2

a = 1.6 w × w = 4000

4000 = 1.6 w^2

w^2 = 2500

w = 50

subst for w in eqn 1

l = 50 x 1.6 = 80

length = 80 yds

width = 50 yds
