Decimals and percentages are both systems of designating parts of a whole. 25% of an object is the same as 1/4 of an object which is the same as .25 of an object.

Solve the following system of equations by substitution. Show all steps.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Given system of equations:

$\begin{cases}f(x)=-x^2+2x+3\\g(x)=-2x+3\end{cases}$

To solve by substitution, equate the equations and solve for x:

$\begin{aligned}f(x) & = g(x)\\\implies -x^2+2x+3 & = -2x+3\\-x^2+4x & = 0\\x^2-4x & = 0\\x(x-4) & = 0\\\implies x & = 0\\\implies x-4 & = 0 \implies x=4\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the x-values of the solution are $x = 0$ and $x = 4$ .

To find the y-values of the solution, substitute the found values of x into the functions:

$f(0)=-(0)^2+2(0)+3=3$

$g(0)=-2(0)+3=3$

$f(4)=-(4)^2+2(4)+3=-5$

$g(4)=-2(4)+3=-5$

Therefore, the solutions to the given system of equations are:

$(0, 3)$ and $(4, -5)$

A rectangle has a length of 12 yards less than 3 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 135 square yards, find the len

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The length is 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the width with W and length with L: So

$Area = 135yd^2$

$L=3W - 12$

Required

Determine the length of the rectangle:

Area is calculated as thus:

$Area = L * W$

Substitute 3W - 12 for L and 135 for Area

$135= (3W - 12) * W$

$135= 3W^2 - 12W$

Reorder:

$3W^2 - 12W - 135= 0$

Divide through by 3

$W^2 - 4W - 45 = 0$

Expand:

$W^2 - 9W + 5W - 45 = 0$

$W(W - 9) + 5(W - 9) = 0$

$(W + 5)(W-9) = 0$

$W + 5 = 0$ or $W - 9 = 0$

$W = -5$ or $W = 9$

But width can't be negative

So:

$W = 9$

Recall that: $L=3W - 12$

$L = 3 * 9 - 12$

$L = 15$

<em>Hence, the length 15 yards</em>

1. Consider the rational numbers 4/13 and 3/10.

Murljashka [212]

A)4/13 would be the larger number since if you were to try to add them, 4/13 = 40/130 and 3/10 = 39/130, 40/130 > 39/130

B) A rational number between them would be 39.5/130.
