Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x + y = 4
y = 2x + 4
2x + 3y = 20
2x + 3(2x + 4) = 20
2x + 6x + 12 = 20
8x + 12 = 20
8x = 8
x = 1
Shorter side: 130ft
longer side: 260ft
greatest possible area: 33800ft^2
basically get the equations for area and perimeter which will be
A: lw (length x width)
P: l + 2w
Substitute them into eachother and you get the equation:
-2w^2+520w = A
find the vertex of this parabola which will give you the greatest width which is 130m
Then u can find length and area from this width
If you didn't change the slope of the line, but you moved it
down 6 units on the graph, then its y-intercept would become
6 less. The equation of the new line would be ...
y = 1/3 x - 16 .
16. would be C since they both consist of the same variable to the same power
17. x-2x+7-9+4x
c. 3x-2
18. -4(3a-5). You would multiply -4 by 3 a, and -4 by -5. It turns to
-4(3a)-4(-5)
a. -12a+20
