Answer:
Let w be the width. Then the length is 2w-4. So:
w(2w-4)=96
2w²-4w-96=0
w²-2w-48=0
(w-8)(w+6)=0
w=8 or -6
Throwing out the negative value for w, we get a width of 8 yds, and a length of 12 yds. ☺☺☺☺
Using a system of equations, it is found that since 20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes would require more testing than the allocated time, it is not possible to build this amount.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable c: number of child bikes.
- Variable a: number of adult bikes.
Each child bike requires 4 hours to build, as do each adult bike. The company has 100 hours of testing, hence:
4c + 4a = 100.
c + a = 25.
With 20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes in a week, we have that c = 20, a = 26, hence:
c + a = 26
20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes would require more testing than the allocated time, it is not possible to build this amount.

6>4-2x<4
so therefor (4x-2) must be less than 6 and less than 4
it must be
6>4-2x and 4<4-2x
find the intersection
6>4-2x
add 2x to both sides
6+2x>4
subtract 6
2x>-2
divide by 2
x>-1
4>4-2x
add 2x
4+2x>4
subtract 4
2x>0
x>0
so we have
x>0
and x>-1
the range of x>-1 includes most of x>0 so the answer is
x>-1
Remember, -(-x)=x because the negatives cancel out
so
when p=-6 and q=7
p+(-q)-3
-6+(-7)-3
-6-7-3
-13-3
-16
