Answer: length = 4.5 m, width = 3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

When a shape is enlarged using a scale factor, you simply multiply each of the sides by the scale factor.

length = 3 * 1.5 = 4.5 m

width = 2 * 1.5 = 3 m

X^2 - y^2 = 100

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by rewriting the second equation in terms of "x":

$x+y=5$

Subtract y from both sides:

$x=5-y$

Now, substitute "5-y" for "x" in the first equation:

$(5-y)^2-y^2=100$

Note that:

$(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$25-10y+y^2-y^2=100$

Cancel out like terms:

$25-10y=100$

Subtract 25 from both sides:

$-10y=75$

Divide both sides by -10

$y=\frac{75}{-10}=\frac{15}{-2}=-\frac{15}{2}$

Now, substitute this value back into either of the equations to solve for x.

$x+y=5\\x-\frac{15}{2}=5\\$

Add 15/2 to both sides:

$x=5+\frac{15}{2}\\x=\frac{10}{2}+\frac{15}{2}\\x=\frac{25}{2}$

Now, find the difference:

$x-y=\frac{25}{2}-(-\frac{15}{2})=\frac{25}{2}+\frac{15}{2}=\frac{40}{2}=20$

I need help with the bottom one the absolute value one

astra-53 [7]

Absolute value is simply the non-negative version of the number regardless of its symbol

So for the absolute value of 20? the answer is just 20.

For reference, the absolute value of -20 is also just 20.

Hope the explanation helps :)

What is t'(x) when t(x) = In<br> x2<br> 2x2+3x+2<br> ?

Korvikt [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

2-×^2

t(×)=3×

(s o t )(x)=st(×)=s(t(x))=2-(3×)^2=2-9x^2

(s o t)(-7) =2-9(-7)^2=2-9(49)= 2-441= -439
