The width can be x.
so it means that the length is 2x
the equation would be
    2(x+2x)=24 inches
    2x+4x= 24
      6x= 24
       x=4 (this is  the width, so the length will be 8 inches)
the area will be 4 times 8 = 32

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

y=-4x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of 2 parallel lines will always be the same, so we plug in the ordered pair to find the y intercept

Shtirlitz [24]
For this case, the first thing we are going to do is rewrite the equation correctly.
 We have then:
 T = 50 + (N-40) / 4
 We substitute the value of N = 98, we have then:
 T = 50 + (98-40) / 4
 T = 64.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
 Answer:
 the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, T is:
 T = 64.5 degrees Fahrenheit.

If the product of a number and -4 is subtracted from the number, the result is 3 more than the number. Find the number
lesya [120]

Answer: The number is 0.75 or 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = the number.

Now set up an equation: The product of a number (x) and -4 = -4x. So -4x is subtracted from the number - x.     x-(-4x)

Then, that equals 3 more than the number (x) = x+3

So the equation is x-(-4x)=x+3.

Then, solve the equation!

x-(-4x)=x+3

x+4x=x+3  (Distribute the negative to the parentheses)

5x=x+3  (Combine like terms)

4x=3  (Get the Xs on one side by subtracting x from both sides)

x=0.75 or 3/4  (divide by the coefficiant, 4, on both sides)

Find the geometric mean of 24 and 32
Maru [420]

Answer:

27√39

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the geometric mean we need to first of all multiply 24 and 32 and take the square root of it (i.e. 24*32 is 768, √768 is 27.712.....). However, in this case, we need to represent the answer in a simplified surd. To do this we need to find the highest possible perfect square that is below 768. Here it is 27 because 27*27 equals 729. Now we can go ahead and subtract 768 by 729. We get 39. So now we got two different surds. √729 and √39. We can simplify the √729 to 27. Thus our answer is the combination of both 27*√39 or 27√39.
