Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
The height of the sail on a boat is 7 feet less than 3 times the length of its base.
Let the length of the base is x.
ATQ,
Height = (3x-7)
Area of the sail is 68 square feet.
Formula for area is given by :

x = 8 feet and x = -3.73 feet
So, length is 8 feet
Height is 3(8)-7 = 17 feet.
So, its height and the length of the base is 17 feet and 8 feet respectively.
2x +3x + 25 = 5x - 15
5x + 25 = 5x - 15
5x - 5x = -15 - 25
0 ≠ -35

I do not know sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 2 when x = - 4, that is
2 = - 4k ( divide both sides by - 4 )
= k, that is
k = -
y = - x ← equation of variation
When x = 20, then
y = - × 20 = - 10
Area is length times width so it is 3 times 3 since a square sides are all the same
