Call the length L and there width W. then perimeter is 2L+2W=18. area is LW=20.

2L+2W=18
L+W=9
LW=20
L=9-W
(9-W)W=20
W²-9W+20=0
(W-5)(W-4)=0
W=4,5

rectangle is 4by5

Remark
The equation is job1/ time + job2/time = job3/time 

Discussion
job one is the time it takes one of the workers to complete the job.
job two is the time it  takes the other workers to complete the job
job three is the time it takes to do the job together. 

Givens.
Let Marcus's time = m
Let Tony's time be =t
Let their together time = t1

Equation Substitution and solution.
1/m + 1/t = 1/t1
1/6 + 1/4 = 1/t1  The common denominator on the left is 12.
2/12 + 3/12 = 1 / t1
5/12 = 1/t1          Cross multiply.
5*t1 = 12             Divide by 5
t1 = 12/5
t1 = 2 2/5
t1 = 2.4 hours

Cost
1 hour = 43 dollars for labor.
2.4 hours = x dollars for labor.

1*x = 43 * 2.4
x = 103.2 dollars. <<<<< Answer

If f(x) is linear, f(− 1) = 9 , and f(2) =− 24, find f(x).
professor190 [17]

Answer: Equation of st line is Y= -9X + 141

Step-by-step explanation: Given Y= 24 when X = 13 and Y = 87 when X = 6

Let the equation be Y = mX + C

24 = m*13 +C

and 87 = m* 6 +C

Give m = -9 and C = 141

Equation of st line is Y= -9X + 141

The length of a rectangle is equal to triple the width. Write a system of equations can be used to tind the dimensions of the re
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

98 = 2w + 2L,

L = 3w

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the perimeter formula:

2) Perimeter = 2w + 2L (where w is the width and L is the length)

Since the length is three times the width we can write:

L = 3w

We can substitue L with 3w:

Perimeter is equal to 98 so,

98 = 2w + 6w = 8w

W = 98/8

Therefore w is 12.25, and L is 36.75
