Let's assign the width to a variable, with that variable being x. the length is two times the width, so it would be 2x. the perimeter of a rectangle is length + length + width + width, so you would add 2x + 2x + x + x = 24 inches. combine like terms (x) to get 6x = 24. divide both sides by 6 to get x = 4. so the width (x) is 4, and the length (2x) is 8. the area of a rectangle is length times width, so multiply 4 * 8. that would get you 32 inches^2.

This is a parabola, first, locate the line of symmetry.
the line of symmetry is x=-b/2a
in this case, b=-2, a=-1, so the line of symmetry is x=-1
when x=-1, f(x)=-(-1)²-2(-1)-3=-2  
locate the point (-1,-2) on the grid. this point is the vertex.
get two pairs of points with x=-1 as the symmetry line:
(0, -3) and (-2, -3); (1,-6) and (-3,-6) 
connect these five points into a parabola, stick out at the ends because it will extend forever downward.

natka813 [3]

Answer: 15 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Denise wants to cover a 21.75 square foot wall with weathered wood and that each box of weathered wood contains 1.5 square feet of wood.

The number of boxes of weathered wood that she need will be calculated by dividing 21.75 square feet by 1.5 square feet. This will be:

= 21.75/1.5

= 14.5

= 15 boxes approximately

5 ( n - 7 ) = 2 ( n + 14 )
wariber [46]

Answer:

n=21

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find n.

Remember PEMDAS. First we must do the Parentheses. Lets do distributive property by multiplying a number that is immediately outside the parentheses with each number inside the parentheses. Lets do this one side at a time.

First lets do 5(n - 7). We get 5n - 35

Now 2(n + 14) is 2n + 28

Okay...... now we have 5n-35=2n+28

Now lets do OPPOSITES!!!! We must do the opposite of each thing to both sides.

The opposite of -35 is positive 35. Lets add 35 to both sides. We get:

5n=2n+63

Now lets do the opposite of 2n which is -2n

3n=63

this is looking quite nice isnt it..........

The opposite of 3 times n is 3 DIVIDED BY n. So lets divide both sides by 3

n=21

amazing.......
