I just solved it and I'm pretty sure its only one solution, I took the bottom equation multiplied it by -3 then i canceled out the equations and got 9. So that would make it C.
Answer: |10 - (-8)|
The absolute value is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two numbers is a subtraction equation.
10 - (-8) Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive
10 + 8 = 18
If you look at it as the first negative sign means -1 multiplied by the next negative number, "Remember that a negative times a negative is a positive!"
The slope of the line l is the opposite reciprocal of y+2x=9. Rearranged the equation to y=9-2x and we get a slope of -2. The opposite reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.
y-y=m(x-x)
y-3=.5(x-4)
y=.5x+1
At the x-intercept, y=0, so
0=.5x+1
-1=.5x
x=-2
Answer:
3 feet wide
Step-by-step explanation:
21/7= 3
Answer: So lets say that the width is w. The length(L) is 4 meters greater than 3 times the width. 3 times the width would be 3w, and then 4 meters greater than that would be 3w+4. You have two widths and two lengths to a rectangle that must add up to equal 72. So 2w + 2L =72. But remember that one L equals 3w+4
2(w) + 2(3w+4) = 72
2w+6w+8=72
8w+8=72
8w=64
w=8
L=3w+4
L=3(8)+4
L=24+4
L=28
So the dimensions are 8 meters by 28 meters
To check 2(8)+2(28)=72
