<h3>Answer:</h3>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Solve the second equation for y.

... 8x -12 = 4y . . . . add 4y -12

... 2x -3 = y . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The coefficient of x is 2, so a parallel line will have an x-coefficient of 2. The line ...

... y = 2x -6 . . . . . . . . m = 2

will be parallel to the given line, so will not intersect it.

Answer:

52%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the difference between this year's sales and the previous'. 1500-990=510.

Now we can divide 990 by 510 to find the percent increase. 510/990=0.515151515152, or 52%.

A rectangle has an area of 19.38 cm2. When both the length and width of the rectangle are increased by 1.50 cm, the area of the

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: $5.7\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle has an area of $19.38\ cm^2$

Suppose rectangle length and width are $l$ and $w$

If each side is increased by $1.50\ cm$

Area becomes $A_2=35.28\ cm^2$

We can write

$\Rightarrow lw=19.38\quad \ldots(i)\\\\\Rightarrow (l+1.5)(w+1.5)=35.28\\\Rightarrow lw+1.5(l+w)+1.5^2=35.28\\\text{use (i) for}\ lw\\\Rightarrow 19.38+1.5(l+w)=35.28-2.25\\\Rightarrow l+w=9.1\quad \ldots(ii)$

Substitute the value of width from (ii) in equation (i)

$\Rightarrow l(9.1-l)=19.38\\\Rightarrow l^2-9.1l+19.38=0\\\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{9.1\pm\sqrt{(-9.1)^2-4(1)(19.38)}}{2\times 1}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{9.1\pm\sqrt{5.29}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{9.1\pm2.3}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow l=3.4,\ 5.7$

Width corresponding to these lengths

$w=5.7,\ 3.4$

Therfore, we can write the length of the longer side is $5.7\ cm$
