Answer:
181 1/4 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The square feet of carpet is needed to cover the floor would b equal to the area of the floor
area of a rectangle = length x breadth
12 1/2‘ x 14 1/2 = 181 1/4 square feet
<u>w</u><u>=</u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u>.</u><u>5</u>
<u>w</u><u>=</u><u>2</u>
Answer:
Solution given:

again
keep square root alone

solve subtraction of 7-2

Squaring on both side

2w²-19w+31=5²-2*5*2w+4w²
take terms one side
2w²-19w+31-25+20w-4w²=0
-2w²+w+6=0
2w²-w-6=0
doing middle term factorisation
2w²-(4-3)w-6=0
2w²-4w+3w-6=0
take common from each two term
2w(w-2)+3(w-2)=0
(w-2)(2w+3)=0
either
w=2
or
W=-3/2=-1.5
No it wont be a rational number
This is a horizontal line at y = -3. If you want to find it mathematically, you could find the slope (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and you would get 0 over 5, so you know the slope is zero. Pick either point and substitute the numbers into point-slope formula. I went with (3, -3) and got (y - -3) = 0(x-3). The right side is just 0, and if you subtract three from both sides to isolate y, you get the equation y = -3.
