Answer:

Length is 3 meters and the Width is 5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

L*W=15

L=2W-7

(2W-7)W=15

$2W^{2} -7W=15\\2W^{2} -7W-15=0$

(2W+3)(W-5)=0, don't use (2W+3)=0, because it gives you a negative dimension.

W=5, L=3

Carlos and Lily want to know the combined amount of money they made last week. They both made $12 per hour, but Carlos also made

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Lily is right

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Carlos made:</u>

12C + 35

<u>Lily made:</u>

12L

<u>Together they made:</u>

12C + 35 + 12L = 12(C + L) + 35

Lily is right. We don't know what 120 means in Carlos's equation, he should put 12L for Lily.

The circle below is centered at the point (4,1) and has a radius of length 2. What is it’s equation?

vekshin1

Answer:

Option B:

$(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Centre = (h,k) = (4,1)

Radius = r = 2

The standard equation of circle is:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Putting the values of h,k and r

$(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = (2)^2\\(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4$

Hence, the correct option is option B

$(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4$
