The distance from x=-12 to x=6 on the horizontal line y=-3 is
.. 6 -(-12) = 18 units

Since each unit represents 1 mile, the road is 18 miles long.

A rectangular pool is 7 feet wide. It is 3 times as long as it is wide.

aliina [53]

Answer:

7x21

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the length of the pool. Since it is three times as long as it is wide, it is 21 feet long (7 x 3 = 21). That way we can tell that it is 7x21, with a perimeter of 56 feet, and an area of 147 feet squared.

If x and y satisfy both 9x+2y=8 and 7x+2y=4, then y=?

Alex

Answer:

The value of y is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$9x+2y=8$ ------> equation A

$7x+2y=4$ ------> equation B

we know that

If x and y satisfy both equations, then (x,y) is the solution of the system of equations

Using a graphing tool

Remember that

The solution of the systems of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (2,-5)

therefore

The solution of the system of equations is the point (2,-5)

The value of y is -5
