X-0.20x=5.56
Solve for x
So the original price is
X=6.95
Answer:
The length is 7 m
The width is 10 m
Step-by-step explanation:
length = x
width = 2x - 4
length * width = area
It is given that the area is 70 
From there
x * (2x - 4) = 70
- 4x = 70
- 4x - 70 = 0
- 2x - 35 = 0
Now we have a quadratic equation, which is a + bx + c = 0, where a 
0
In this equation a = 1, b = -2 and c = -35
Discriminant (D) formula is b² - 4ac
D = 
- 4 * 1 * (-35) = 144 > 0
This discriminant is more than 0, so there are two possible x
Their formulas are 
and 
= 
= -5 < 0 (the length of the rectangle has to be more than 0, so we don't use this x)
= 
= 7 > 0 (this one is right)
Calculating the dimensions
length = x = 7 (m)
width = 2x - 4 = 2 * 7 - 4 = 10 (m)
Answer:
y+7 = -3 ( x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First find two points on the graph to find the slope
( 1,2) and ( 3,-4)
The slope is given by
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = ( -4-2)/(3-1)
= -6/2
=-3
We can use the point slope form
y - y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and x1,y1 is a point on the line
We have two choices with a slope of -3
We can either use and x coordinate of -2 or 4
for -2, the y coordinate is not shown
for 4 , the y coordinate is -7
Using ( 4, -7) and m = -3
y--7 = -3( x- 4)
y+7 = -3 ( x-4)
