Answer:

length = 10 units; width = 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width = w

Then the length is w + 7

Original area: w(w + 7)

Double the width: 2w

Increase the length by 2: w + 9

Area of new rectangle: 2w(w + 9)

Area of new rectangle = w(w + 7) + 42

2w(w + 9) = w(w + 7) + 42

2w^2 + 18w = w^2 + 7w + 42

w^2 + 11w - 42 = 0

(w + 14)(w - 3) = 0

w + 14 = 0 or w - 3 = 0

w = -14 or w = 3

A width cannot be negative, so we discard w = -14.

The original width is 3 units.

The length is 7 more than the width, so the length is 10 units.

Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Express your answer using the general form or the slope-intercept form
Damm [24]

Answer:

y=-3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the equation in the slope-intercept form first, put the equation in slope-point form using the information given. The slope-point form is y-(-2)=-3(x-2). Then solve for y.

Distribute -3 to (x-2),

y-(-2)=-3x+6

Then, add -2 to both sides,

y=-3x+4

This is your final answer; the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 4. There are also a few other ways to solve but I find this the easiest.

what number must be added to 3 and 8 so that the ratio of the first number to the second number is equal to 3 :4​
Grace [21]
The answer is 12.
Steps
If that number is x
(3+x)/(8+x)=3/4
"Cross multply"
4(3+x)=3(8+x)
12+4x=24+3x
x=12
To check: add 12 to 3 and 8. 3+12=15 and 8+12=20. 15/20=3/4

Help with my homework <br> Evaluate the exponent expression for a = 1 and b = –2.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

  -1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the values where the variables are and do the arithmetic.

1 to any power is 1, so you can ignore all of the 'a' factors. That leaves ...

  1/(2b^3) = 1/(2(-2)^3) = 1/(2(-8)) = -1/16

___

A calculator can help you figure this out.
