1/2(2+a)=3a+4/3

first, you use the distributive property<span>

</span>then your problem changes to...

1 + 1/2a = 3a + 4/3

then you subtract 1/2a with 3a

1  = 2 1/2a +4/3
<span>
now you subtract 1 with 4/3
</span>
-1/3 = 2 1/2a

now you divide -1/3 with 2 1/2a 

-2/15 = a

A = -2/15 is your answer. Hope this helps :)

A large chocolate bar has a base area of 47.1 square feet and it’s length is 0.7 feet longer than twice it’s width. Find the len
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The dimensions of the bar are width = 4.68099 feet and length = 10.06198 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A chocolate bar has a rectangular shape, therefore it's area is given by the following formula:

area = width*length

In this case the length is 0.7 feet longer than twice the width, therefore:

length = 2*width + 0.7

Applying the second equation on the first one and using the data from the question we have:

47.1 = width*(2*width + 0.7)

47.1 = 2*width² + 0.7*width

2*width² + 0.7*width = 47.1

width² + 0.35*width = 23.55

width = \frac{-0.35 \pm \sqrt{0.35^2 -4*1*(-23.55)}}{2*1} = -0.175 \pm 4,85599

width = 4.68099 or width = -5.03099

Since the width can't be negative, it can only be 4.68099 feet.

length = 2*4.68099 + 0.7 = 10.06198 feet.

Find the equation of the line passing through the points A (2,1) B (7,9)
Bezzdna [24]
m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{9 - 1}{7 - 2} = \frac{8}{5} = 1\frac{3}{5}
              y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
               y - 1 = 1³/₅(x - 2) Point - Slope Form
               y - 1 = 1³/₅(x) - 1³/₅(2)
               y - 1 = 1³/₅x - 3¹/₅
                 + 1           + 1
                    y = 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅ Slope - Intercept Form
         -1³/₅x - y = 1³/₅x - 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅
          -1³/₅x - y = -2¹/₅
     -1(-1³/₅x - y) = -1(-2¹/₅)
-1(-1³/₅x) + 1(y) = 2¹/₅
           1³/₅x - y = 2¹/₅ Standard Form
         1³/₅(0) - y = 2¹/₅
                0 - y = 2¹/₅
                    -y = 2¹/₅
                    -1    -1
                     y = -2¹/₅ Y - Intercept
               (x, y) = (0, -2¹/₅)

If you place a 24-foot ladder against the top of a 22-foot building, how many feet will the bottom of the ladder be from the bot
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Plug in the knowns

a² + 22² = 24²

Subtract 22² from both sides

a² = 24² - 22²

a² = 576 - 484

a² = 92

Take the square root of both sides

a = 9.591663046625438

Rounded

a = 9.6 ft
