A=l*w

A=3*10

30=A

add x to l and w the area doubled

60 = (3+x)(10+x)

FOIL

60 = 30 +3x+10x+x^2

60 = x^2 +13x+30

subtract 60 from each side

0=x^2 +13x-30

factor

0=(x+15) (x-2)

x+15=0  x-2=0

x=-15  x=2

x cannot be negative so x=2

new dimensions

3+2, 10+2

Answer: 5m ,12m

Is 9-8x=y proportional
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

No, proportional relations are of the form,

y = mx

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

9 - 8x = y

This is an equation in the form:

y = mx + c

since we can rewrite to get:

y =  - 8x + 9

This equation has a non-zero y-intercept and does not pass through the origin.

A proportional relation, will have a zero y-intercept and pass through the origin.

Therefore a proportional relation is of the form,

y = mx

Given triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, angle A measures 30 degrees, and angle F measures 50 degrees, what is the measure
Alona [7]

Answer:

100 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, their angles are basically the same.

All angles of a triangle have to add up to 180.

We are already given two angles: 30 and 50

Add them together: 30 + 50 = 80

Now we subtract the number from 180

180 - 80 = 100

The remaining angle has to be 100 degrees

Which unit would you use to measure the capacity of a soda can?
IRINA_888 [86]
You would use fluid ounces because you are measuring a liquid. There are other units you could use but measuring it in fluid ounces allow for a more accurate measurement because they are smaller
 
You would milliliters because they are smaller thus more accurate than liters
