The length of a rectangle is 4 feet more than the width. If the perimeter is 20 ft. What is the length of the rectangle?

Perimeter:  P = 2L + 2W.  In this problem L = W + 4 or W = L - 4.  We want L, so let's eliminate W:

P = 2L + 2(L - 4) = 20 (all measurements in feet)

Simplifying,

     2L + 2L - 8 = 20, or 4L = 28 ft.  Thus, L = 7 ft.

The rectangle is 7 ft long.

Mike ran 1 mile in 4 minutes. How far did he run in 10seconds?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

0.015 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1mile = 4min \\ 1mile = 240sec \\ 0.609km = 240sec \\  \frac{0.609}{24}  =  \frac{240}{24}  \\ 10sec = 0.025km \\ 10sec = 0.015miles

Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.
Karolina [17]
Substitution is where we first Isolate one of the unknowns, express it in terms of the other unknown, and replace the isolated unknown with the other unknown in another equation. So that each time we only need to deal with one unknown. I think you'll get a better idea here:

First name these 2 equations with 1 and 2.
4x + 5y = 7 (1)
y = 3x + 9 (2)

Since y is already isolated in (2), so we can skip the isolation step and continue to substitute.

Substitute (2) into (1).
4x + 5(3x+9) = 7

Expand.
4x + 15x + 45 = 7

Group.
19x + 45 = 7

Shift +45 to the other side and turn it into -45.

19x = 7 - 45
19x = -38

Shift x19 to the other side, turn it into /19.
X = - 38/19
X = - 2

Now we solved x already, we can just substitute x= - 2 back to equation (2).

y = 3(-2) + 9
y = - 6 + 9
y = 3

So, the answers are
x = - 2
y = 3

Find (3) if<br> f(x)=x2 + 2x2-x-1
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

f(3)=23

Step-by-step explanation:

By evaluating first, and then the mathematical calculation, we have:

f(3)= 3^{2} + 2 ×3^{2} - 3 -1 

= 9 +18 -3-1  

= 23
