<span>Let y= original side
So
A = LW
60 = (y+15)(y-13)
(y+15)(y-13) = 60
y^2 + 2y - 195 = 60
y^2 + 2y- 195 - 60 = 0
y = -17 or y= 15
Toss out the negative solution to get y= 15 as the only solution.
So the square has a side length of 15 meters.
The area of this square is 15^2 = 15*15 = 225 square meters.</span>
Answer:
D: All real numbers greater than or equal to 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the 2 equations to eliminate the 2y. We get
2x = 6
x = 3
Plug x = 3 into the first equation:-
3 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 3 = 4
y = 2
Answer is x = 3 and y = 2
Answer:
35 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
At negative values he is inside the volcano, when he reaches 0 he will be at the top of the volcano
At 35 seconds, the elevation is 0, so he is at the top of the volcano
