A stretched spring has a length of 12 inches when a weight of 2 lbs is attached to the spring. The same spring has a length of 1
Advocard [28]
The way I figured this one out was saying that if it takes 2lbs to stretch it to 12 inches and 5lbs to stretch to 18 inches that means that 3 additional pounds = 6 inches. Therefore, each additional pound is 2 inches. We know already that with 2 lbs it was 12 inches in length and we can also say that 2 lbs = 4 inches. So subtract 4 from 12 and you end up with the answer of 8 inches.

The length of a rectangle is 7 ft longer than twice the width. If the perimeter is 92 ft find the length and width of the rectan
user100 [1]

Width of the rectangle is 13 ft and length of the rectangle is 33 ft

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

Step 1:

Given perimeter of the rectangle = 92 ft. Let the width be x, then the length of the rectangle = 2x + 7. Use the formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width) to find the dimensions.

92 = 2(2x + 7 + x) = 2(3x + 7) = 6x + 14

⇒ 92 = 6x + 14

⇒ 78 = 6x

⇒ x = 78/6

∴ x = 13 ft

⇒ Width of the rectangle = 13 ft

∴ Length of the rectangle = 2x + 7 = 26 + 7 = 33 ft

Which choice is the solution for this system ? 2x − 5y = 14 x + 3 2 y = 5
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The required solution is (5.75,-0.5). It can be written as (\frac{11}{4},-\frac{1}{2}).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

2x-5y=14                       .... (1)

x+\frac{3}{2}y=5            .... (2)

Multiply the equation (2) by 2.

2x+3y=10                     .... (3)

Subtract equation (1) from equation (3).

2x+3y-(2x-5y)=10-14

2x+3y-2x+5y=-4

8y=-4

y=-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5

Put this value in equation (1).

2x-5(-0.5)=14

2x+2.5=14

2x=11.5

x=5.75

Therefore the required solution is (5.75,-0.5). It can be written as (\frac{11}{4},-\frac{1}{2}).

Equation of the line:

y = -0.4x + 1.6

or
y =
- 2 x
5
+ 8
5
When x=0, y = 1.6
When y=0, x = 4
