Looking at this problem in terms of geometry makes it easier than trying to think of it algebraically.
If you want the largest possible x+y, it's equivalent to finding a rectangle with width x and length y that has the largest perimeter.
If you want the smallest possible x+y, it's equivalent to finding the rectangle with the smallest perimeter.
However, the area x*y must be constant and = 100.
We know that a square has the smallest perimeter to area ratio. This means that the smallest perimeter rectangle with area 100 is a square with side length 10. For this square, x+y = 20.
We also know that the further the rectangle stretches, the larger its perimeter to area ratio becomes. This means that a rectangle with side lengths 100 and 1 with an area of 100 has the largest perimeter. For this rectangle, x+y = 101.
So, the difference between the max and min values of x+y = 101 - 20 = 81.
2(10-3) distribute = 2*10 is 20 and 2*3 is 6
20-6+(5-14/2)
now 20-6 is 14
14+(5-14/2)
now 14/2 is 7
14+(5-7)
now 5-7 is -2
14+-2
is 12
the answer is 12
but if you want to you can do 12/3 to get the greatest common factor
which is 4
hope i help you :P

Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3x
This is in slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is -3 and the y intercept is 0
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
A segment parallel to a side of a triangle cuts off proportional segments on the sides.
48/6 = (3x + 7)/5
8 = (3x + 7)/5
3x + 7 = 40
3x = 33
x = 11
