Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7(p-6)=8p-34
Distribute 7 into the parentheses on the Left Hand Side of the equation
7p-42=8p-34
get p together, so minus 7p on both sides
7p-7p-42=8p-7p-34
7p and -7p cancel out on L.H.S
-42=p-34
isolate p by adding 34 to both sides
-42+34=p-34+34
-34 and postitive 34 cancel out on the R.H.S
p=-8
Hope this helps! :)

Length of deck is 40 feet
<h3><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h3>
Sam wants the deck to have an overall perimeter of 60 feet
Perimeter of rectangular deck = 60 feet
Let "L" be the length of rectangle and "W" be the width of rectangle
Given that plans for a rectangular deck call for the width to be 10 feet less than the length
Width = length - 10
W = L - 10 ------ eqn 1
<em><u>The perimeter of rectangle is given as:</u></em>
perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
Substituting the known values we get,
60 = 2(L + L - 10)
60 = 2(2L - 10)
60 = 4L - 20
80 = 4L
L = 20
Thus the length of deck is 20 feet
Answer:
the answer is A
okay that it have a nice day
Answer:
the third option
Step-by-step explanation:
what does that mean ?
to "rationalize" it is to transform it into a rational number (that is a number that can be described as a/b, and is not an endless sequence of digits after the decimal point without a repeating pattern).
a square root of a not square number is irrational (not rational).
so, what this question is asking us to get rid of the square root part in the denominator (the bottom part).
for this we need to multiply to and bottom with the same expression (to keep the whole value of the quotient the same) that, when multiplied at the bottom, eliminates the square root.
what can I multiply a square root with to eliminate the square root ? the square root again - we are squaring the square root.
so, what works for 9 - sqrt(14) as factor ?
we cannot just square this as
(9- sqrt(14))² = 81 -2sqrt(14) + 14
we still have the square root included.
but remember the little trick :
(a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²
without any mixed elements.
so, we need to multiply (9-sqrt(14)) by (9+sqrt(14)) to get
81-14 = 67 which is a rational number.
therefore, the third answer option is correct.
