Answer:
You need to find the x and y intercepts so...
The x intercept is (18,0) since x=18
The y intercept is (0,12) since y=12
Step-by-step explanation:
Cover the y when you are finding the y intercept
Cover the x when you are finding the x intercept
8x/8
144/8
=18
12y/12
144/112
=12
The product means to multiple
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
4-7x= 39
Subtract 4 from both sides
-7x= 35
Divide both sides by -7
x= -5
The value of x+1= (-5)+1= -4.
Answer:
a= 200
b = 210
Step-by-step explanation:
My assumption is, we have to find the length of sides of rectangle
Given
perimeter = 2a + 2b = 820 ft (i) (here a is smaller side and b is larger side)
area = a*b = 42,000 ft^2 (ii)
from eq (1)
2a + 2b = 820
=> 2(a+b) = 820
=> a+b = 820/2
=> a + b = 410
=> a = 410-b (iii)
putting the value of a in eq(ii), we get
(410-b) *b = 42,000
410b - b^2 = 42,000
0 = b^2 - 410b + 42000
b^2 - 410b + 42000 = 0
b^2- 200b- 210b + 42000 = 0
b(b-200)-210(b-200) = 0
(b-200)(b-210) = 0
or
b= 210 and b = 200
if b is larger side than b =210
By putting value of b in eq(iii),
a = 410 -210 = 200
