X= 50
Replace the x with the given number.
Y= 50-20
Y= 30
Answer: The length is 13 inches and the width is 11 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the rectangle.
Let W represent the width of the rectangle.
The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = LW
The area of the rectangle is 143 square inches. This means that
LW = 143 - - - - - - - - - - - - --1
The rectangle's length is 2 in more than its width. This means that
L = W + 2
Substituting L = W + 2 into equation 1, it becomes
W(W + 2) = 143
W² + 2W - 143 = 0
W² + 13W - 11W - 143 = 0
W(W + 13) - 11(W + 13) = 0
W + 13 = 0 or W - 11 = 0
W = - 13 or W = 11
Since the width cannot be negative, it means that W = 11
L = W + 2 = 11 + 2
L = 13
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember the order of operations using PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). So, you get 18 - 6 / 5-1 = 12/4 = 3
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The gradient of the line segment is the same as slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( -4 - -5)/( 2 - -4)
= (-4+5)/( 2 +4)
1/6
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x varies directly as y then the equation relating them is
x = ky ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition x = 9 when y = 4
k = 
= 
= 2.25
x = 2.25y ← equation of variation
When y = 8, then
x = 2.25 × 8 = 18
