First you add like terms in which this case is -.46x and .16x which equals -.3x then divide 6.6 into -.3 which is -22. x = -22
The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
30 - 29 = 1 for the first one.
Answer:
12 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the area of the pool be Length×width
There will be 2lengths and 2widths as well so the perimeter of the pool will be the addition of all the sides of the pool i.e 2L + 2W = 96... (1)
And since the length of the pool is 3 times its width, we have
L = 3W... (2)
Substituting equation 2 into 1 to get the width 'W'
2(3W) + 2W = 96
6W + 2W = 96
8W = 96
W = 96/8
W = 12feets
The width of the pool is 12feets
