Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the opposite and then get to a point where we get a false statement. That proves that the the opposite of the opposite (What we originally wanted to prove) is true.
let
x-------> workers in team one initially
y-------> workers in team two initially
we know that
x=2y-----> equation 1
(x-5)=(y-2)+7-----> x-5= y+5----> x=y+10---------> equation 2
equate equation 1 and equation 2
2y=y+10-----> y=10
x=2*10------> x=20
Team 1 now has 20-5 = 15 members Team 2 now hase 10-2 = 8 members
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius of the circle times 2 to make it the diameter, because the diameter of the circle is the same as the side length.
Answer:
The flower garden width would be 6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0
Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16
Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.
In this context only a positive x value makes sense: x = 2 + 4 => x = 6.
The flower garden width would be 6 ft. The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.
Answer:17
Step-by-step explanation:
b(1)=16
b(n)=b(n-1)+1
b(2)=16(2-1)+1
b(2)=16(1)+1
b(2)=16+1
b(2)=17
