<h3>Answer:</h3>

a) l = 5 + 2w

b) P = 2(l +w) = 2(5 +2w +w)

c) w = 8 cm, l = 21 cm

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

a) Using w for width, twice the width is 2w, and 5 more than that is 5+2w. This is your expression for l:

... l = 5 + 2w

b) The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides, so is the sum of twice the length and twice the width.

... P = 2(l +w) = 2(5 +2w + w) . . . . substituting for l using the expression of (a)

c) Substituting the given perimeter, we have ...

... 58 = 2(5 +3w) = 10 + 6w . . . . . collect terms, eliminate parentheses

... 48 = 6w . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10

... 8 = w . . . . . . . . divide by 6

... l = 5 + 2·8 = 21 . . . . . find length using the formula for it

Dimensions are in centimeters, so we can write the solution as ...

  • width = 8 cm
  • length = 21 cm

For a fixed amount of a gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. At a pre
Veronika [31]

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form y*x=k or y=k/x

Let

x-------> the pressure in PSI

y------> the volume of the gas in cubic inches

In this problem we have the point (30,600)

so

x=30\ psi\\y=600\ in^{3}

Find the constant k

y*x=k

substitute the values of x and y

600*30=k

k=18,000\ lb*in

the equation is

y=18,000/x

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

y=18,000/x

There are 22 rows of seats on a concert hall: 23 seats are in the 1st row, 27 seats on the 2nd row, 31 seats on the 3rd row, and
JulijaS [17]
We can model this situation with an arithmetic series.
we have to find the number of all the seats, so we need to sum up the number of seats in all of the 22 rows.

1st row: 23
2nd row: 27
3rd row: 31
Notice how we are adding 4 each time.

So we have an arithmetic series with a first term of 23 and a common difference of 4.

We need to find the total number of seats. To do this, we use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series (first n terms):

Sₙ = (n/2)(t₁ + tₙ)

where n is the term numbers, t₁ is the first term, tₙ is the nth term

We want to sum up to 22 terms, so we need to find the 22nd term

Formula for general term of an arithmetic sequence:

tₙ = t₁ + (n-1)d,

where t1 is the first term, n is the term number, d is the common difference. Since first term is 23 and common difference is 4, the general term for this situation is

tₙ = 23 + (n-1)(4)

The 22nd term, which is the 22nd row, is

t₂₂ = 23 + (22-1)(4) = 107

There are 107 seats in the 22nd row.

So we use the sum formula to find the total number of seats:

S₂₂ = (22/2)(23 + 107) = 1430 seats

Total of 1430 seats.
If all the seats are taken, then the total sale profit is

1430 * $29.99 = $42885.70

blagie [28]

Answer: The number of points added for r right answers is 12r. The number of points taken away for w wrong answers is 4w, so Olga's total points will be

... 12r -4w

To win, she needs this number to be more than 400. Your inequality is ...

... 12r -4w > 400
