Kind of lengthy but hope it helps! ;)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Create formulas for length and perimeter.
L = 4/W
10 = 2*L + 2*W
Substitute formula for length for the length in perimeter formula
10 = 2*4/W + 2*W
10 = 8/W + 2*W
5 = 4/W + W
5W = 4 + W^2
0 = 4 - 5W + W^2
W^2 -5W + 4 = 0
You now have a standard quadratic equation with A=1, B=-5, and C=4
Using the quadratic formula you get two possible answers
W = 1, or W = 4
Let's check them
Width = 1, L = 4/1 = 4
Width = 4, L = 4/4 = 1
Both make the same 1x4 rectangle. And the perimeter is 2*1 + 2*4 = 2+8 = 10
I don’t understand do u need the equation but if u do this is the equation y=2/7+4 hope that helps
Part A:
1 solution. It is a linear equation => one solution.
Part B:
3(2x - 7) = 3
(divide through by 3) 2x - 7 = 1
(add 7 to both sides) 2x = 8
(divide through by 2) x = 4
