Answer:

g = j - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Jessie installed j axles. Convert words to math:

- "12 more" = + 12

- "the number of engine blocks her friend Gus installed yesterday" = g

Put it together: g + 12. This is equal to j: j = g + 12. Solve for g:

j = g + 12

g = j - 12

Lets use the variables "a" and "g" to solve.

a =  number of axles

g =  number of engine blocks

If Jessie has 12 more axles than the number of engine blocks, this means we are adding (g + 12).

Now, we have the expression a = g + 12

Solve for g since we are finding the number of engine blocks Gus Installed.

a = g + 12

~Subtract 12 to both sides

a - 12 = g + 12 - 12

a - 12 = g

Therefore, the answer is [ a - 12 = g ]

Best of Luck!

Which is the right answer?????
Inga [223]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation: put it into point slope-form

y-ysub1=m(x-xsub1)

m=slope=(-2-3)/(2-(-1))=-5/3

ysub1 is 3 and xsub1 is -1

so substitute: y-3=-5/3(x-(-1))

y-3=-5/2(x+1)

Julius has a garden that has dimensions of 12 ft by 20 ft. Julius needs more room to plant some peppers, and determines the gard
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

C. 3.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the amount of increase be 'x' feet.

As, the length and width of the garden are 20 ft and 12 ft respectively.

It is given that the area of the new garden is 360 ft²

Since, the length and width are increased by 'x'.

The new length and width are (x+20) ft and (x+12) ft respectively.

So, we get,

New area, A_{G} = length × breadth = (x+20) × (x+12)

i.e. 360 = x^{2}+32x+240

i.e. x^{2}+32x-120=0

i.e. (x+35.4)(x-3.4)=0

i.e. x = -35.4 and x= 3.4

Since, the value of x cannot be negative.

Thus, x = 3.4 feet.

5x-y=-8 | subtract 5x from both sides.


-y = -5x - 8 | divide both sides by -1


y = 5x + 8 Done.

2a^2-32

2*a^2-2*16

2*(a^2-16)

but we have a Difference of two square

x^2-y^2=(x+y)*(x-y)

now you can see it very well

2*(a^2-4^2)

so

\boxed{\boxed{2*(a-4)*(a+4)}}
