Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the length and width L and W respectively.

L=2W+8

2W+2L=124

We plug our value of L into the second equation and solve for W.

2W+2(2W+8)=124

We undo the parentheses with the distributive property.

2W+4W+16=124

Combine like terms.

6W+16=124

Subtract 16 from both sides.

6W=108

Divide both sides by 6.

W=18

We plug this W value into the first equation to solve for L.

L=2(18)+8

L=36+8

L=44

So, the length is 44 feet and the width is 18 feet.

Have a wonderful day! :D

a) A(t) = A[r(t)] = π[r(t)]^2 = π[4t]^2 = 16π(t^2)

b) t = 4,

Selmas class making a care package to give to victims of a natural disaster.Selma packs one box in 5 minutes and has already pac
bixtya [17]

Each of them need to work 105 minutes more in order to have packed the same number of boxes.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, they need to work for x minutes more in order to have packed the same number of boxes.

Selma packs one box in 5 minutes and Trudy packs one box in 7 minutes.

So, the number of boxes packed by Selma in that x minutes =\frac{x}{5} and the number of boxes packed by Trudy in x minutes =\frac{x}{7}

Given that, Selma and Trudy have already packed 12 and 18 boxes.

Now if <u>each of them packed the same number of boxes</u>, then the equation will be......

12+\frac{x}{5}=18+\frac{x}{7}\\ \\ \frac{x}{5}-\frac{x}{7}= 18-12\\ \\ \frac{7x-5x}{35}=6\\ \\ \frac{2x}{35}=6\\ \\ 2x= 210\\ \\ x= \frac{210}{2}=105

So, each of them need to work 105 minutes more in order to have packed the same number of boxes.

What happens to the value of the expression 80-2r as r decreases?
Ghella [55]

Answer:The value of the expression increases as r decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : What happens to the value of the expression as r decreases?

Given Expression: 80-2r

We check for different value of r as decreasing order,

r        80-2r

5        80-10=70

4        80-8=72

3        80-6=74

2        80-4=76

1         80-2=78

As r decreases the value of expression increases.

Therefore, the value of the expression increases as r decreases.

Hope this helps!
