Answer:

x = 26; l = 137; m = 137

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel, that means the measurements are too. As such, equal the two expressions together

5x + 7 = 8x - 71

add 71 to both sides

5x + 7 + 71 = 8x - 71 + 71

-71 and +71 cancel each other out

5x + 78 = 8x

subtract 5x from both sides

5x - 5x + 78 = 8x - 5x

5x - 5x cancels each other out

78 = 3x

divide both sides by 3

3x ÷ 3 = 1x which can also be written as just x

78 ÷ 3 = x

26 = x

plug in this x value into both expressions to find variables l and m

l:

5(26) + 7

130 + 7

137

m:

8(26) - 71

208 - 71

137

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

  • resistance: (2r +5)
  • current: (3i +4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of the given expression are ...

  6ir +15i +8r +20 = (3i +4)(2r +5)

Which factor is current and which is resistance is not clear. Usually, resistance is referred to using the variable r, so we suppose the expressions are supposed to be ...

  resistance: (2r +5)

  current: (3i +4)

statuscvo [17]
All we need to do to find the correct answer is to double the prize for a night. I'll "cut" it into pieces so you can see exactly how I calculated it:

$91.35 * 2 =
= $90.00 * 2 + $1.00 * 2 + $0.35 * 2 =
= $180.00 + $2.00 + $0.70 =
= <u>$182.70</u>

Answer: They will pay $182.70 for two nights at the hotel.

A square pool has a side length of x feet.A uniform border around pool is 1 footwide.The total area of the pool and the border o
lions [1.4K]
The total area of pool and border = 361  square feet.

Length of square pool = x

Length of square pool plus border =  (x + 1 +1 ) = x + 2

There is 1 foot length on each side on the x  length.

The other length of the square pool and border =  (x + 2)

Area = (x+2)(x+2)

     (x + 2)(x +2) =  361.            Let A = x +2

        A*A = 361
            A²  = 361    Take square root of both sides
             A  = √361
               A = 19

A = x + 2 = 19
       x = 19 - 2
       x = 17

Area of square pool = x*x = 17*17 = 289

Area of the pool = 289 square feet.
