17/30, The peanuts by a dollar per pound (peanuts cost $3, walnuts cost $2), $21, 40072/100 (and I'm not sure how you would reduce it) Good luck!
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since RT bisects QRS
1/2 QRS = TRS
1/2 ( 9x+214) = -9x+53
Multiply each side by 2
9x +214 = -18x+ 106
Add 18x from each side
9x +214+18x = 106
27x +214 = 106
Subtract 214 from each side
27x = 106-214
27x =-108
Divide by 27
27x/27 = -108/27
x = -4
TRS = -9x+53
=-9 *-4 +53
= 36+ 53

The diagonal of a rectangle = sqrt(w^2 + l^2)
w = width
l = length
In this problem,
The diagonal = 20 in
w = x
l = 2x + 8
Let's plug our numbers into the formula above.
20in = sqrt((x)^2 + (2x + 8)^2)
Let's simplify the inside of the sqrt
20 in = sqrt(5x^2 + 32x + 64)
Now, let's square both sides.
400 = 5x^2 + 32x + 64
Subtract 400 from both sides.
0 = 5x^2 + 32x - 336
Factor
0 = (5x - 28)(x + 12)
Set both terms equal to zero and solve.
x + 12 = 0
Subtract 12 from both sides.
x = -12
5x - 28 = 0
Add 28 to both sides.
5x = 28
Divide both sides by 5
x = 28/5
The width cant be a negative number so now we know that the only real solution is 28/5
Let's plug 28/5 into our length equation.
Length = 2(28/5) + 8 = 56/5 + 8 = 96/5
In conclusion,
Length = 96/5 inches
Width = 28/5
7,150,000
The population of Georgia is 10,500,000.
The population of Virginia is 30% less than that.
So the population of Virginia is 10,500,000 - 30% which equals 7,150,000
