Please help me with this Algebra problem: The length of a rectangle is 91 less than six times the width of the rectangle. If the

perimeter of the rectangle is 84 centimeters, what is the length of the rectangle? Write a system of equations for this situation and find its solution.
I have so far: P = 2L + 2W P = 2 (6x-91) + 2W P = 12x -182 + 2W 2 (6x-91) =84 12x -182 =84 12x =266 Please help...I am confused...thank you

 182 Let x = width then y = 6x - 91. P (perimeter) = 2x + 2y = 84 then

2(x) + 2(6x - 91) = 84 | 2x + 12x - 182 =84 | 14x = 84 + 182 | 14x = 266 | x = 19 cm

y = 6x - 91 | y = 6 (19) - 91 | y = 114 - 91 | y = 23 cm

Check: P = 2x + 2y | P = 2(19) + 2(23) | P = 38 + 46 | P = 84 cm (Checked)

Can someone help me with these functions
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Function 1:

The starting point is (0,0.5)

As x increases, y increases

Function 2:

The starting point is (0,3)

As x increases, y decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the starting point, we need to plug in x=0.

y=0.5+3(0)\\\\y=0.5

y=3(0.5)^0\\\\y=3(1)\\\\y=3

As we plug in increasing numbers into function#1, the y-value increases

As we plug in increasing numbers into function #2, the y-value is decreasing

M is the midpoint of AN, A has coordinates
maksim [4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Question , M is the midpoint of AN, A has coordinates (-7,4), and M has coordinates (-4, -1).

<u>Figure</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

\setlength{\unitlength}{1 cm}\begin{picture}(20,12) \put(4,0.2){\line(0,-1){0.4}}\put(1,0){\line(1,0){6}} \put(3.8,-0.6){$\bf M(-4,-1) $} \put(1,-0.6){$\bf A (-7,4)$}   \put(6.8,-0.6){$\bf N(x,y)$} \end{picture}

Let the coordinates of N be ( x , y )

Now , according to Midpoint Formula , the midpoint of points say A(x , y) and B (x' , y') is given by ,

\boxed{\blue{ \bf Midpoint =\bigg( \dfrac{x+x'}{2} , \dfrac{y+y'}{2} \bigg) }}

<u>On</u><u> </u><u>using</u><u> </u><u>this</u><u> </u><u>formula</u><u> </u><u>,</u><u> </u>

=> Midpoint = \bigg( \dfrac{x+x'}{2} , \dfrac{y+y'}{2} \bigg)  \\ \\ => (-4, 1) = \bigg( \dfrac{x -7 }{2} , \dfrac{y + 4 }{2}\bigg) \\ \\ => -4 = \dfrac{x-7}{2} \\\\ => x - 7 = -8 \\\\ => x = 7 -8 \\\\ \boxed{\red{\sf=> x = -1 }} \\\\ => \dfrac{y+4}{2}=-1 \\\\=> y +4 = -2 \\ \\ y = -4-2 \\\\\boxed{\red{\sf=> y = -6 }}

Angelo and Deborah are landscapers. Angelo charges a one time fee of $50 plus $15 per hour. Deborah charges a one time fee of $2
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:'

given data

Angelo charges a one time fee of $50 plus $15 per hour

let the total charge be y

and the number of hours be x

y= 50+15x----------------1

Deborah charges a one time fee of $25 plus $20 per hour

y= 25+20x----------------2

equate 1 and 2 to find x

50+15x=25+20x

collect like terms

50-25= 20x-15x

25= 5x

divide both sides by 5

x= 25/5

x= 5 hours
