Answer:
150 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 10 marks between the 1st and 11th mark.
Since each mark represents 5 yards, 10 * 5 = 50 yards
Since 1 yard = 3 feet
50 yards = 50 * 3 = 150 feet
let length = x
width is 7 feet less than length
width = x-7
area = length *width
area = x(x-7)
170=x²-7x
x²-7x-170=0
x²-17x+10x-170=0
x(x-17)+10(x-17)=0
(x-17)(x+10)=0
x=17 or x=-10
since length cannot be negative so x=17
and width =x-7 =17-7=10
length =17 feet and width =10 feet
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x + 1 = -x + 17
To solve this equation
Note if there is more than one variable like x, y, or z
Also note the power of the variables, for example, x^2 or y^3
In this equation, there is only one variable which is x and it's also in the power of 1 ie x
Step 1 : rearrange according to like terms
-9x + x = 17 - 1
( don't forget that the sign always change on crossing an equals to, either + to - or - to +
-9x + x (also means 9 - 1 but only carries a negative sign)
= - 8x = 16
Dividing both sides by -8 to get the value of x
-8x / 8 = 16 /- 8
x = 16/ -8
x = -2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Factor the expression:</u>
- 2y² + 21y + 10 =
- 2y² + 20y + y + 10 =
- 2y(y + 10) + (y + 10) =
- (y + 10)(2y + 1)
