Answer:

1.875 inches apart

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you meant "1  7/8 inches."  

Convert 7/8 to a decimal fraction.  Divide 7 by 8 on a calculator; you will get 0.875.  Then:   1  7/8 inches = 1.875 inches.  

Plant the seeds 1.875 inches apart.

A rectangle and a square have the same area. The width of the rectangle is 2 in less than the side of the square and the length
lina2011 [118]
The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.

W=S-2 and L=2S-3

And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.

S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:

S^2=(2S-3)(S-2)  perform indicated multiplication on right side

S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6  combine like terms on right side

S^2=2S^2-7S+6  subtract S^2 from both sides

S^2-7S+6=0  factor:

S^2-S-6S+6=0

S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0

(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:

S=6 is the only valid value for S.  Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...

W=S-2 and L=2S-3  given that S=6 in

W=4 in and L=9 in

So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.

Help please!
Alina [70]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 8x - 9

Then

For a.

f(3y - 1 ) = 8(3y - 1 ) - 9

= 24y - 8 - 9

= 24y - 17

Now for b.

f(x) = - 23

or, 8x - 9 = - 23

8x = - 23 + 9

8x = - 14

x = - 14 / 8

x = - 7 / 4

Hope it will help :)

Piper claims that 3(2a + 2) is equivalent to 5a + 6. She checks her claim by substituting -3 for a. Is Piper's claim correct? Wh
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Piper's claim is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2(-3)+2) = 5(-3)+6

3(-6+2) = -15 + 16

-18 + 6 = 1

-12 = 1

Please help I'm really confused I need have with these 6 questions
Lelechka [254]
Ahh, basic shapes. Split up the weird shapes into easier ones. #1 can be truned into 2 trapezoids. #2 can be turned into 2 circles. #3 is a triangle and a trapezoid. #4 is 2 right triangles. #5 is a rectangel and a traingle. Finally, #6 is 3 traigles and a rectangle. Do you see how we broke the hard shapes into easier shapes?
