Answer:

VW=21\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

Point W is between point V and point X

Points W,V and X are collinear

so

VX=VW+WX -----> equation A (by addition segment postulate)

we know

VX=(5x+1)\ units\\VW=(4x-7)\ units\\WX=3x\ units

substitute the given values in the equation A and solve for x

5x+1=(4x-7)+3x

Combine like terms in the right sides

5x+1=(7x-7)

Group terms that contain the same variable

7x-5x=1+7

2x=8

x=4

<em>Find the length of VW</em>

VW=(4x-7)\ units

substitute the value of x

VW=(4(4)-7)=21\ units

At a sport clubhouse the coach wants to rope off a rectangular area that is adjacent to the building. He uses the length of the
Furkat [3]

Answer:

w < 8 meters ( w must be greater than 0 because length cannot be 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

One side with building is 23 meters, the other opposite side also will be 23 meters (with rope).

Let width (remaining 2 sides) be "w", he has AT MOST 39 meters of rope, so we can write:

Rope Needed = 23 + 2w < 39

Simplifying:

23 + 2w < 39\\2w < 39 - 23\\2w < 16\\w < 8

The range of possible values of w is  w meters (of course w has to be greater than 0)

Harrizon [31]

Keep in mind that we're framing it based on what the first sentence says, which is "If the cost of a competing factor of production, such as a machine that also could do the job, rises".

So if the cost of getting a machine part, various parts, or the entire machine cost rises, then demand for the machine will go down. This will make employers seek out substitutes. In this case, those substitutes would be human labor. As employers demand for labor goes up, the wages will rise assuming the supply of workers is held constant. If the supply of workers increased, then you could argue the wages could go down. So that's why I'm assuming the supply is held in check.
