A rectangle is 5 cm wider than twice its length. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 70 cm, then what is the area?

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the rectangle are two unknowns: The length "l" and the width "w"

The perimeter of a rectangle is found as P = 2*l + 2*w

We also know that the length is 5cm more than twice the width. l = 2*w + 5

These two equations gives us a system of linear equations.

P = 2*l + 2*w

l = 2*w + 5

We can use substitution to replace the "l" in the first equation with 2*w + 5

P = 2*(2*w + 5) + 2*w

P = 4*w + 10 + 2*w

P = 6*w + 10

we know the perimeter is 70

70 = 6* w + 10

subtract 10 from both sides

60 = 6* w

w = 10

Now that we know the width, we can find the length by substituting 10 for "w" in the second equation.

l = 2* 10 + 5

l = 20 +5

l = 25

the dimentions of the rectangle are 25cm x 10 cm

Lucy packs plates faster she packs 5 plates every minute. Mike packs 4 plates every minute because 3/4 of an hour is 45 minutes, then you divide 180 by 45 and the answer is 4 per minute. 
Franco would have to pack 90 plates every 20 minutes (1/3 of an hour) for his rate to be between Lucy's and Mike's. Lucy's rate is at 100 plates per 20 minutes because she can pack 5 plates every minute. Mike's it's at 80 plates per 20 minutes because he can pack 4 plates per minute. So that means that For Franco to be in the middle he has to pack 90 Plates every 20 minutes. 
Hope this helps!!!

In Exercises 1-16, solve the inequality. Graph the solution<br> 1. 3y ≤ -9
murzikaleks [220]

By solving the inequality we get y\leq -3

What is graphing the inequality?

The act of illustrating which area of the number line contains values that will "satisfy" the specified inequality is known as graphing the inequality. Take a look at the first inequality, "x > -5." The numbers that can be used to substitute x in our inequality to produce a true statement can be shown on a graph of our inequality.

3y\leq -9

Dividing above equation by 3 we get,

\frac{3y}{3}\leq \frac{-9}{3}\\y\leq -3

Graph of y\leq -3 is

Therefore by solving the inequality we get y\leq -3

Simplify this expression. If it is already simplified, then write it as it is.
kirill [66]

Answer:

18x^5 +28x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

20x^2 + 14x^5 + 8x^2 + 4x^5

Combine like terms

20x^2  + 8x^2 + 4x^5+ 14x^5

28x^2 + 18x^5

We usually write the highest power term first

18x^5 +28x^2
