<span>A = LW = 44
and
L = 3 + 2W
now substitute this into the first equation...
(3+2W)W=44
3W+2W^2=44

Rearranging
2W^2 + 3W - 44 = 0
Factoring we get
(2W + 11)(W - 4) = 0
so that
W = 4 inches
L = 11 inches</span>

Let width = x   then length  = 2x + 3

so area = 119 = x(2x + 3)

2x^2 + 3x - 119 = 0
(2x + 17)(x - 7)  
x = 7 , -8.5
so x = 7   ( -8.5 can be ignored)

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 7x−3y=107x−3y=10?
Verdich [7]
This is the concept of algebra, to get the slope of the line we need to rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c, where m=slope, c=y-intercept.
Therefore re-writing our expression in slope-intercept form we get:
7x-3y=10
-3y=-7x+10
y=7/3x-10/3
The slope=7/3
hence we conclude that the slope of the line perpendicular to this is -3/7

Given the speeds of each runner below, determine who runs the fastest.
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Brooke

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by figuring out how far each person runs a second

Stephanie runs 12 feet a second so nothing needs to be done here

Liz runs 306 feet in 38 seconds. To solve for the distance ran in 1 second we can divide (306/38)= around 8 feet

Will runes 1 mile in 491 seconds. A quick search will tell use that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet and 5280/491 = 10.75

Brooke runs 851 feet in 1 minute or 60 seconds. 851/60 =14.18

Brooke obviously runs the furthest in one second and therefore she's the fastest runner
