Answer:

The side length of of the base of the tank is 15 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Cost of the tank and filter system = $280

Perimeter of tank base = 60 inches

The perimeter of tank is in the shape of square.

We have to find the side length of the base of the tank.

Perimeter of tank base = Perimeter of square =

P = 4a\\\text{where a is the side of square}\\60 = 4a\\\Rightarrow a  = 15\text{ inches}

Thus, the side length of of the base of the tank is 15 inches.

How to solve -2p^2=16p+24
frozen [14]

Add  2p²  to each side of the equation.  Then you have

                 2p² + 16p + 24  =  0 .

Before you roll up your sleeves and start working on it, you can make it
even more convenient if you divide each side by  2 .  Then you have:

                 p² + 8p + 12 = 0 .

Now you have a nice, comfortable, familiar-looking quadratic equation. 
You can either factor the left side into  (p + 6) (p + 2), or, if you can't find
the factors, you can apply the quadratic formula to it.

That's how to solve it, and find its two solutions.

Select the correct answer. what is the solution set of y = x2 2x 7 and y = x 7? a. {(0, 7), (-1, 6)} b. {(0, 7), (-7, 0)} c. {(0
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

a. {(0, 7), (-1, 6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^{2} +2x+7\\y=x+7

subtract the equations

y = x^{2} +2x+7 \\-       \ \ \ \ \  y=x+7\\y - y =x^{2} +2x+7-(x+7)\\0=x^{2} +x\\x = 0 \ and \ x= -1

for y = x^{2} +2x+7, substitute x = 0

y = (0)^{2} +2(0)+7\\y = 0 +0+7\\y=7

for y = x^{2} +2x+7, substitute x = 0

y = (-1)^{2} +2(-1)+7\\y = 1 -2+7\\y=6
