One positive number is 8 more than twice another. If their product is 234 find the numbers
Setler [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number = x

Let the smaller number = y

x = 2*y + 8

x * y = 234              Put the first  equation into the second.

(2y + 8)*y = 234      Remove the brackets

2y^2 + 8y = 234     Subtract 234 from both sides

2y^2 +  8y - 234 =0 Factor out 2

2(y^2 + 4y - 117) = 0 Divide by 2

y^2 + 4y - 117 = 0

(y + 13)(y - 9)

y = 9 is one answer

x * y = 234

x * 9 = 234         Divide by 9

x = 234/9

x = 26

The two numbers are 9 and 26

Find the perimeter and the area of a rectangle that has a length of 7 feet and a width of 4 feet?
lbvjy [14]
Formula for P:  P = 2W + 2L
Formula for A:  A = WL

Here, P = 2(4 ft) + 2(7 ft) = (8+14) ft = 22 ft
and    A = (4 ft)(7 ft) = 28 ft^2

What would be the slope intercept form for the inequality 3 x − 2 y &gt; 5 ?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

y < 3/2x - 5/2  or  y < 3/2 x - 2.5  

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -2y > 5

Solve for y

3x - 2y > 5   when solving a problem with an inequality sign, rewrite the problem and solve with an equal sign and add the equality at the end.

3x - 2y = 5

-2y = -3x + 5

y = -3/-2x+ 5/-2

y =  3/2x  - 2 1/2

Now if you have to use the inequality sign, you will use < because the y term was negative and that will change the direction of the inequality sign.

So y < 3/2x - 5/2    or y < 3/2 x - 2.5
