Answer:
205 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is (6w-17) and the area is ...
A = LW
7585 = (6w-17)(w)
6w² -17w -7585 = 0
Perhaps most straightforward is using the quadratic formula to solve this.
For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solution is x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a). For the above quadratic, the solution is ...
The width is 37 feet, so the length is ...
6(37) -17 = 205 . . . feet
The length of the rectangle is 205 feet.
Recall that the slope or gradient of a line segment through two points is the ratio of the change in the <em>y</em> coordinate to the change in the <em>x</em> coordinate.
If the gradient is 1, then
1 = (-3 - 4) / (<em>a</em> - 3<em>a</em>)
Solve for <em>a</em> :
1 = -7 / (-2<em>a</em>)
1 = 7/(2<em>a</em>)
2<em>a</em> = 7
<em>a</em> = 7/2
Answer:-2, 4, -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Graph
The discount is 60% of regular price, or we can write it as
discount = 60% × regular price
input the numbers
discount = 60% × regular price
discount = 60% × 45
discount = 60/100 × 45
discount = 2,700/100
discount = 27
The answer is $27
