Answer:

9x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x + 3) + (4x - 1) - (2x + 4)

Distribute the minus sign

(7x + 3) + (4x - 1) - 2x - 4

Combine like terms

7x+4x-2x   +3 -1-4

9x                -2

A family wants to build a rectangular garden on one side of a barn. If 600 feet of fencing is available to use, then what is the
vovangra [49]

Answer: (A) A=300l-l^{2}

               (B) Length varies between 1 and 150

               (C) Largest area is 22500ft²

Step-by-step explanation: Suppose length is l and width is w.

The rectangular garden has perimeter of 600ft, which is mathematically represented as

2l+2w=600

Area of a rectangle is calculated as

A=lw

Now, we have a system of equations:

2l+2w=600

A=lw

Isolate w, so we have l:

2w=600-2l

w = 300 - l

Substitute in the area equation:

A = l(300 - l)

A = 300l - l²

(A) <u>Function of area in terms of length is given by </u><u>A = 300l - l²</u>

(B) The practical domain for this function is values between 1 and 150.

(C) For the largest area, we need to determine the largest garden possible. For that, we take first derivative of the function:

A' = 300 - 2l

Find the values of l when A'=0:

300 - 2l = 0

2l = 300

l = 150

Replace l in the equation:

w = 300 - 150

w = 150

Now, calculate the largest area:

A = 150*150

A = 22500

<u>The largest area the fence can enclose is </u><u>22500ft².</u>

When Rafael emptied his pockets, e found he had a total of $3.50 in quarters and nickels. If he had 8 more quarters that nickels
jasenka [17]
You can use systems of equations for this one.

We are going to use 'q' as the number of quarters Rafael had,
and 'n' as the number of nickels Rafael had.


You can write the first equation like this:
3.50=0.05n+0.25q
This says that however many 5 cent nickels he had, and however many
25 cent quarters he had, all added up to value $3.50.
Our second equation is this:
q=n+8
This says that Rafael had 8 more nickels that he had quarters.

We can now use substitution to solve our system.

We can rewrite our first equation from:
3.50=0.05n+0.25q
to:
3.50=0.05n+0.25(n+8)

From here, simply solve using PEMDAS.

3.50=0.05n+0.25(n+8)     --Distribute 0.25 to the n and the 8
3.50=0.05n+0.25n+2     --Subtract 2 from both sides
1.50=0.05n+0.25n     --Combine like terms
1.50=0.30n     --Divide both sides by 0.30
5=n     --This is how many NICKELS Rafael has.

We now know how many nickels he has, but the question is asking us
how many quarters he has.

Simply substitute our now-known value of n into either of our previous
equations (3.50=0.05n+0.25q or q=n+8) and solve.

We now know that Rafael had 13 quarters.

To check, just substitute our known values for our variables and solve.
If both sides of our equations are equal, then you know that you have
yourself a correct answer.

Happy math-ing :)

Carmin is trying to find the equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,16) and (5,88) . Does the equation y=12x+28 w
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Yes! The equation, y = 12x + 28 , work.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through points (-1, 16) and (5, 88)

The slope of the line = change in y ÷ change in x

i.e slope = \frac{88 - 16}{5 - -1} = 12

Taking another point (x ,y) on the line;

Slope is \frac{y - 16}{x - -1} = 12

y - 16 = 12x + 12

y = 12x + 12 + 16

y = 12x + 28

So the equation, y = 12x + 28, work!
