Answer:

width: 5.5 yd; length: 8 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle in yards. Then 2w-3 is the length and the area is the product of length and width:

w(2w-3) = 44

2w^2 -3w -44 = 0 . . . . put the equation into standard form

(w+4)(2w -11) = 0 . . . . . factor the equation

w = -4 or 11/2 . . . . . . . . the negative solution is extraneous

Then the length is 2·(11/2) -3 = 8.

The width of the rectangle is 5.5 yards; the length is 8 yards.

Need help with math ASAP (Please)

First you plot in the y-intercept of the equation. To find the y-intercept, substitute 0 into x. -3m will cancel our giving you y=5. x=0, y=5, the first ordered pair is (0,5). Now after you plot in the y-intercept, use your slope, which is -3, to graph the points of the equation. Starting from (0,5), move down 3 spaces on the y-axis (because it’s -3) and you’ll end up at (0,2). Next move over 1 ( all slopes with just a whole number moves on the x-axis 1 since the whole number divided by 1 doesn’t change the slope number) to the right because it’s a negative linear equation so it’ll go downward. After moving right, you’ll get (1,2). Do a couple more points starting from (1,2) then the 3rd point ABD and so on to get 3 or more points to be able to draw a linear line.

To solve this questions, we can turn 2 into a fractions.

2 as a fraction is 2/1 (because 2 divide by 1 is still 2)
We can now use this to get our answer. 

1/3  ÷ 2/1 
=  1/3 × 1/2    (flip the fraction and then multiply)
= 1/6          (1 x 1 / 3 x 6)

Or 0.16666.. as a decimal

Mila graphs the point A
melamori03 [73]
Answers:
B. <span>The x-coordinate of point A is 5.
</span>E. <span>Point A is on the x-axis.
</span>
Explanation:
Any point drawn on the coordinates has the general notation of (x,y).
The given point is (5,0). This means that:
The x-coordinate of the point is 5
The y-coordinate of the point is 0

Now, let's check the place of this point.
The x-coordinate of the point is 5. This means that we will move 5 points to the right of the origin on the x-axis
The y-coordinate of the point is 0. This means that we will not move along the y-axis which means that the point stays on the x-axis.

Now, comparing the deduced results with the given choices, we will find that the correct choices are B and E

Hope this helps :)
