L=2W+3, A=LW, using L from the first in the second gives you:

A=(2W+3)W

A=2W^2+3W, and we are told A=90 so

2W^2+3W=90

2W^2+3W-90=0

2W^2-12W+15W-90=0

2W(W-6)+15(W-6)=0

(2W+15)(W-6)=0, since W>0 for all real possibilities, 

W=6ft, and since L=2W+3

L=15ft

So the pool will be 6 ft wide by 15 ft long.

Bridget purchased 3 pairs of shoes online. The total bill of $126.81 included a $7.50 shipping charge and 6% tax on the total pu
Alika [10]

Answer:

$37.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let's set the price of each pair of shoe to be x.

Since each pair of shoes costs the same, and there are three pairs, we can set the original price to be 3x.

Now, to apply the shipping charge, all we have to do is add 7.50 to 3x, getting 3x + 7.5.

Next, to apply a 6% tax, we can multiple the whole expression by (100% + 6%), getting (3x + 7.5) \cdot 106%.

Since the whole bill foots to a total of $126.81, we can set the final equation to be:

(3x + 7.5) \cdot 106\% = $126.81

(3x + 7.5) \cdot \frac{106}{100} = $126.81

3x + 7.5 = $126.81 \cdot \frac {50}{53}

3x = $119.6 - 7.5

3x = 112.1

x \approx \$37

Hope this helped!

What is the rule when multiplying or dividing by a negative number to solve inequalities?

You flip the inequality.
Example: if x > -y and you divide both sides by (-1) then you flip the inequality so: -x < y
