Answer:

Todd originally had 64 games; Jaylon had eight.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Todd has 56 games now, after having given eight games to Jaylon, Todd must have started with 64 games.

Let x = Jaylon's original games.

If Todd has <em>250 % more games</em> than Jaylon, he has <em>3.5 times as many </em>games as Jaylon.

Let x = Jaylon's original number of games. Then

x+ 8 = Jaylon's games now

                                                 ∴ 56 = 3.5(x+8)

Distribute the 3.5                        56 = 3.5x +28

Subtract 26 from each side     3.5x = 26

Divide each side by 3.5               x = 8

Jaylon originally had eight video games.

Check:

64 - 8 = 3.5(8 + 8)

    56 = 3.5 × 16

    56 = 56

If \ell is the length and w the width, then \ell=2w-2.

Since the area of the rectangle is

\ell w=40

you have

(2w-2)w=40\implies 2w^2-2w-40=0\implies w^2-w-20=0

Factoring the left hand side gives

(w-5)(w+4)=0\implies w=5,w=-4

Obviously the width can't be negative, so w=5. This means D is the answer, since it's the only option with this measure.

Solve this system of equations: 3x-2y=2 5x-5y=10
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

(- 2, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - 2y = 2 → (1)

5x - 5y = 10 → (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by - 3, then add to eliminate x

15x - 10y = 10 → (3)

- 15x + 15y = - 30 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate x , that is

5y = - 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = - 4

Substitute y = - 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

3x - 2(- 4) = 2

3x + 8 = 2 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

3x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 2

Solution is (- 2, - 4 )

Determine the coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle to compute the area of the rectangle using the distance formula (roun
belka [17]

Answer:

The graph of the rectangle missing in the question is shown in the figure attached.

Coordinates of the points are:

A(1,8)

B(4,5)

C(14,21)

D(17,18)

The area of the rectangle is AB*BD.

The length of a segment given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is computed as follows:

√[(y2 - y1)^2 + (x2 - x1)^2]

For segment AB:

√[(5 - 8)^2 + (4 - 1)^2] = √18

For segment BD:

√[(18 - 5)^2 + (17- 4)^2] = √338  

Then, the area is:

AB*BD = (√18)*(√338) = √(18*338) = √6084 = 78
