Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is

P = 2L + 2W.  We are given the perimeter as 180 feet, so

180 = 2L + 2W.  Solve this for either L or W.  I chose W, no reason...

180 - 2L = 2W so

90 - L = W  Hold that thought.  We'll come back to it in a minute.

Area is

A = LW.  We are given the area as 1800 square feet, so

1800 = LW.  Sub in 90 - L for W:

1800 = L(90 - L).  Distribute to get a quadratic:

1800=90L-L^2

Get everything on one side and solve for the length by factoring:

-L^2+90L-1800=0

Factor this however you like to factor quadratics, to get the length of

L = 30 and L = 60.  First off, the length is longer than the width in general, so if we want to solve for the width, plug in 60 as L in the equation in bold print:

90 - 60 = W and

30 = W

So L = 60 and W = 30

Komok [63]

Answer:

59.04g of fat

Step-by-step explanation:

I) Figure out how much grams of fat is in 1g of margarine:

II) Next, we can figure out how much fat is in 82 g of margarine:

0.72 × 82 = 59.04

One shot formula:

(3.6g ÷ 5g) × 82g = 59.04g

Sati [7]

Answer:

1. D 2. A 3. Distribute the four in 4(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. It says that Jamie is saying that they are "not equivalent".

2. You have to use the distributive property to distribute the 4 to x and to the 1.

3. After distributing, compare the two expressions and now see if they are equivalent or not.

For the graph Y equals 1 find slope of a line that is perpendicular to it in the slope of a line parallel to it
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The answer is Undefined (∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

The line y = 1 has a slope of 0, and the line parallel to it, for instance, y = 3, has the same slope, m1 = 0. For the slope of the line perpendicular to that parallel line is m2 = -1/m1, which is -1/0 = ∞

In the following system of equations, what would you do to eliminate x? 2x + 4y = 10 x - 3y = 12
Anvisha [2.4K]
2x +4y =10x-3y =12

2x +4y =12 -----eq. 1

10x-3y =12 -------eq.2


2x =12 -4y [using eq. 1]
x = (12-4y)/ 2
= 6 -2y

Now, substitute the value of x in eq. 2
10 (6-2y)-3y =10
60 -20y -3y =10
-23 y = 10 -60
y = -50 / -23
y = 50/23


Now, substitute this value of y in any equations given above

10 x-3 (50/23) =12
10x - (150/23)= 12
x= 426/230
