<span>V = L,w,h
w = width
w - 2 = height
w + 4 = length
8(w + 4) = V

8(w + 4) = w(w - 2)(w + 4)

Solve for w <span>Answer = -2 </span></span>

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (−2, 4)?

GrogVix [38]

First find the slope of the given line like this:
$5x + 2y = 12\\2y=-5x+12\\y=\frac{-5}{2}x+6$
If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope, so the equation we are looking for is in the form:
$y=\frac{-5}{2}x+a$ and we have to find b using the given point like this:
Substitute x = -2 and y=4 in the above equation like this and solve for a:
$4=\frac{-5}{2}(-2)+a$
$4=5+a$
$a=4-5=-1$
The equation of the line is then the following:
$y=\frac{-5}{2}x-1.$

Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. If

Aleks04 [339]

<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6

Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.
