The correct answer is C. Absolute numbers should always yield a positive value. Other choices doesn’t do that. Measuring the distance on a number line ensures the positive value without changing the magnitude of the number given.
Answer:
x=47, y=68
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the two equations. Then we get
-y=-68
y=68
Substituting the value of y in the first equation,
8x-6(68)=-32
8x-408=-32
8x=376
x=47
Answer:
-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The area is 105.5ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Required
The area of the composite figure
The figure can be divided to 2 shapes
(1) Rectangle: Length = 6ft and Width = 8ft
(2) Trapezoid: Height = 5ft (i.e. 8 - 3), Parallel sides = 9ft and 14ft (i.e. 20 - 6)
The area of the rectangle is:

The area of the trapezoid is:




So, the area of the garden is:


(2h – 3)(3h + 4) is the same thing as
2h(3h + 4) - 3(3h + 4)
6h^2 + 8h - 9h - 12
6h^2 - h - 12
Answer B.
