Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation would be 2/(x-3) + 2/x = 1 derived from the work formula of T/A + T/B = 1; T representing total time working together, A/B respectively representing the two different rates of working. In the end Terry would spend 6 hours working alone.

To find if a point is a solution (or verifies) an inequation (or an equation), you simply have to enter the given values in it and see if it's true.

Let's try with all the 4 given choices:

(-4, -2)  

y + x < -5

-4 - 2 < -5

-6 < -5 TRUE

(-3, -2)

y + x < -5

-3 - 2 < -5

-5 < -5 FALSE

(-2, -3)

-2 - 3 < -5

-5 < -5 FALSE

Farmer Smith enclosed his rectangular pasture with fence that cost him $1.50 per linear meter. If his pasture is twice as long a
maria [59]

Answer:

$2,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pasture be x, this means that the length of the pasture will be 2x

The area of a rectangle is L * B

Hence,

x * 2x = 18,000

2x^2 = 180,000

x^2 = 90000

x = 300 meters

This means the length is 600 metres

Now, to get the length of the fence, we need to know the actual perimeter which is 2(L + B)

= 2 ( 300 + 600)

2 * 900 = 1,800 metres

The cost is thus 1,800 * $1.50 = $2,700

22. Solve the system
DaniilM [7]
Equation 1)  x + 6y = 2
Equation 2)  5x + 4y = 36

Multiply all of equation 1 by 5.

1)  5(x + 6y = 2)

Simplify.

1)  5x + 30y = 10
2)  5x + 4y = 36

Subtract equations from one another.

26y = -26

Divide both sides by 26.

y = -1

Plug in -1 for y in the first equation.

x + 6y = 2

x + 6(-1) = 2

Simplify.

x - 6 = 2

Add 6 to both sides.

x = 8

D : (8, -1)
