Answer:

l = 2 1/2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is given by the formula

A = l*w

We know the area is 8 1/2  

Changing this to an improper fraction  8 1/2 = (2*8 +1)/2 = 17/2

The width is 3 2/5  as an improper fraction  = (5*3+2)/5 = 17/5

A = l*w

17/2 = l* 17/5

Multiply each side by 5/17

17/2 * 5/17 = l* 17/5 * 5/17

5/2 = l

2 1/2 = l

Answer:

l = 2.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lb

8.5 = l * 3 2/5

8.5 = l * 3.4

l = 8.5 / 3.4

l = 2.5 <u>feet</u> <u>(</u>Always remember to put the units, otherwise you may not get points.)

Solve using substitution<br><br> y=1/2x<br> x+4y=18
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The solution set is (6,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by multiplying equation 1 by 2. You'll see why in a moment

2y = 2*(1/2) x

2y = x

Substitute this value into equation 2.

2y + 4y = 18                  Combine like terms on the left

6y = 18                          Divide both sides by 6

6y/6 = 18/6                    Do the division

y = 3

To solve for x just use the top equation

y = 1/2x

3 = 1/2x                          Multiply by 2

3*2 = x

x = 6
