Answer:

Andrea's Expression: (1 - 0.2)^w

w: number of weeks

0.2: percent decrease

1 - 0.2: decay factor for each week

I got Eric's Expression wrong :(

The area of a rectangle garden is 2g^2+34g+140. If the width is 2g+14 what is the length?

ASHA 777 [7]

We know that
[area of rectangle]=length*width
area=2g²<span>+34g+140
</span><span>width =2g+14
</span>
step 1
find the roots of 2g²+34g+140

using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
g=-10
g=-7
so
2g²+34g+140=(2g+14)*(g+10)

therefore

the length is (g+10)

the answer is
the length is (g+10)

What two numbers add to equal ten and multiplies to equal negative seven?

lawyer [7]

Okay ShallBeTheLast, what we will do will involve a lot of simple plug and play kind of actions.
To start we must notice one number must be negative and the other should be positive, because the multiplied number is a negative.

Next, lets multiply number that have a sum of 10 (keep in mind one has to be negative and the other has to be positive).

-1 * 10 = -10 false
-2 * 12 = -24 false
-3 * 13 = -39 false
notice that no number working and it's only getting farther away.
There is no solution for this that involves to integers.

I think you might of wrote the question backwards.
If that is the case we would run numbers like.....
-1 * (-6) = 7 false
-2 * (-5) = 10 true!!!!

-2 and -5 would work

Answer:

Graph C

Step-by-step explanation:

y = .7x

For a direct variation, we know that the line has to go through the origin (0,0)

This eliminates graphs b and d. We also know that the slope is .7

When x = 1, y = .7. This eliminates graph a, because when x=1 y =1. This leaves us graph c
