The Answer would be: Ratio
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation5:
set up an equation for this. x will be the score of the losing team. x+2x=96. Then solve for x. 3x=96. x=96/3 x=32. So the losing team got 32 points and the winning team got 64
The area of a rectangle is obtained through the equation,
A = L x W
The width of the yard is 4 ft less than the length and may be expressed as L - 4. Length may be solved through the following steps,
A = (L)(L-4) ; 96 = L(L - 4) ; L = 12 ft
The length and width are 12 ft and 8 ft, respectively. Perimeter may be solved through the equation,
P = 2 x (L + W)
Substituting the values of L and W
P = 2 x ( 12 ft + 8 ft) = 40 ft
Therefore, the perimeter of the yard is 40 ft.
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
