A = L * H
A = 65
L = 2H - 3

65 = H(2H - 3)
65 = 2H^2 - 3H
-2H^2 + 3H + 65 = 0
(-Hh + 13)(H + 5) = 0

-2H + 13 = 0
-2H = -13
H = -13/-2
H = 6.5 <== height is 6.5 inches

H + 5 = 0
H = -5....this wont work because it is negative

L = 2H - 3
L = 2(6.5) - 3
L = 13 - 3
L = 10 <== length is 10 inches

luda_lava [24]
X = adults
Y = child

X+y=168
X=168-y

$10x + $7y = $1446

10(168-y) + 7y = 1446
1680 - 10y + 7y = 1446
-3 y = -234
Y = 78

X = 168-78
X = 90

$10*90 + $7*78 =

2 The Skoblickis are building a new home. The scale
yanalaym [24]

The actual width of the room is 20 ft and the actual length of the room is 15 ft

Since on the scale, 2 in : 5 ft and the width of the room on the drawing is 8 in.

Let the actual width of the room is w.

The ratio of the drawing to actual width is   8 in : w

So, 2 in : 5 ft = 8 in : w

2 in/5 ft = 8 in/w

So, w = 8 in × 5 ft/2 in

w = 4 × 5 ft

w = 20 ft

Also, the length of the room on the drawing on the drawing is 6 in.

Let the actual length of the room is L.

The ratio of the drawing to actual length is   6 in : L

So, 2 in : 5 ft = 6 in : L

2 in/5 ft = 6 in/L

So, L = 6 in × 5 ft/2 in

L = 3 × 5 ft

L = 15 ft

So, the actual width of the room is 20 ft and the actual length of the room is 15 ft.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

\$1,920

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

A=P(1+rt)

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

t=5*12=60\ months\\ P=\$1,200\\r=0.01

substitute in the formula above

A=\$1,200(1+0.01*60)

A=\$1,200(1.6)=\$1,920
