Answer:

W=7 and L=11

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two unknowns so we must create two equations.

First the problem states that  length of a rectangle is 10 yd less than three times the width so: L= 3w-10

Next we are given the area so: L X W = 77

Then solve for the variable algebraically. It is just a system of equations.

3W^2 - 10W - 77 = 0

(3W + 11)(W - 7) = 0

W = -11/3 and/or W=7

Discard the negative solution as the width of the rectangle cannot be less then 0.

So W=7

Plug that into the first equation.

3(7)-10= 11 so L=11

How can you tell there is no solution of a system of equations by looking at the equations or the graph? Explain.​
sashaice [31]
Each shows two lines that make up a system of equations. If the graphs of the equations intersect, then there is one solution that is true for both equations. If the graphs of the equations do not intersect (for example, if they are parallel), then there are no solutions that are true for both equations.

use the plot of the concentration of cu(no3)3 versus absorbance provided. if the absorbance of an unknown was determined to be 0
Helen [10]

Using the linear regression equation, the concentration of the unknown solution is 0.2161 M.

Linear regression describes the relationship of two variables. It may not be exact but it is the line that best fit the data. The equation for a linear regression is in the form y = bx + a, where x and y are the two variables.

If the absorbance of an unknown was determined to be 0.67 absorbance units, using the linear regression equation provided from the plot, substitute the value of absorbance to the variable y and solve for the value of x or the concentration.

y = 3.8674x - 0.1657

0.67 = 3.8674x - 0.1657

3.8674x = 0.67 + 0.1657

3.8674x = 0.8357

x = 0.2161

Hence, the concentration is 0.2161 M.

(50 points) A diameter of a circle has endpoints P(-10, -2) and Q(4,6)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the two end points of the diameter.

Formula

Center = (x2 + x1)/2 , (y2 + y1)/2

Givens

x2 = 4

x1 = - 10

y2 = 6

y1 = - 2

Solution

Center = (4 - 10)/2, (6 - 2)/2

Center = -6/2 , 4/2

Center = - 3 , 2

So far what you have is

(x+3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = r^2

Now you have to find the radius.

You can use either of the endpoints to find the radius.

find the distance from (4,6) to (-3,2)

r^2 = ( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )

x2 = 4

x1 = -3

y2 = 6

y1 = 2

r^2 = ( (4 - -3)^2 + (6 - 2)^2 )

r^2 = ( (7)^2 + 4^2)

r^2 = ( 49 + 16)

r^2 = 65

Ultimate formula is

(x+3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 65

The radius is √65 = 8.06
