-2.1x and 4.9x = 2.8x
3.7 and 5 = 8.7
2.8x + 8.7 is your final answer.
Answer:
The rectangle is 3.2 cm by 12.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
See attached image for a diagram.
Choose <em>w</em> to represent the width because the length is described by referring to the width: it's 3 more than (add 3) triple (multiplied by 3) the width.
Length = 3w + 3
The diagonal forms two right triangles, each with leg = <em>w</em>, other leg = 3<em>w</em> + 3, hypotenuse = 13.
The Pythagorean Theorem says
so

Now solve using the Quadratic Formula with
.

The negative root makes no sense as a distance, so the width of the rectangle is 3.2 cm. The length is 3(3.2) + 3 = 12.6 cm.
82.2
Add all of them up and then divide by 10.
Answer:
85%
Step-by-step explanation:
- Calculate how many students passed on their first try. 20 x 70% is 14, so 14 students passed on their first try.
- 6 students retook the test. Half of 6 is 3. Add 3 to the 14 students that passed earlier.
- Calculate the percent with the equation 17/20 = 0.85. 0.85 = 85%.
PART A:
Find the rate of change between 1980 and 1989
d for P₁ = 80 - 60
d for P₁ = 20
d for P₂ = 76 - 82
d for P₂ = -6
The rate of change in P₁ is 20 hundred per year. The rate of change in P₂ is -6 hundred per year.
PART B:
Find the rate of change between 1989 and 1996
d for P₁ = 100 - 80
d for P₁ = 20
d for P₂ = 70 - 76
d for P₂ = -6
The rate of change in P₁ is 20 hundred per year. The rate of change in P₂ is -6 hundred per year.
PART C:
Find the rate of change between 1980 and 1996
d for P₁ = 100 - 60
d for P₁ = 40
d for P₂ = 70 - 82
d for P₂ = -12
The rate of change in P₁ is 40 hundred per year. The rate of change in P₂ is -12 hundred per year.
