Answer:

it must be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

7xy = a positive number

7 is positive.

x is a negative number.

y must be negative for 7xy to be positive.

(+) * (-) * (-) = +

The product of two negative numbers is positive.

The area of a rectangle has decreased by 2%.
MissTica

Answer:

The other side was decreased to approximately .89 times its original size, meaning it was reduced by approximately 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the basic equation for the area of a rectangle:

l × w = a

And now express the changes described above as an equation, using "p" as the amount that the width is changed:

(l × 1.1) × (w × p) = a × .98

Now let's rearrange both of those equations to solve for a / l.  Starting with the first and easiest:

w = a/l

now the second one:

1.1l × wp = 0.98a

wp = 0.98a / 1.1l

1.1 wp / 0.98 = a/l

Now with both of those equalling a/l, we can equate them:

1.1 wp / 0.98 =  w

We can then divide both sides by w, eliminating it

1.1wp / 0.98w = w/w

1.1p / 0.98 = 1

And solve for p

1.1p = 0.98

p = 0.98 / 1.1

p ≈ 0.89

So the width is scaled by approximately 89%

We can double check that too.  Let's multiply that by the scaled length and see if we get the two percent decrease:

.89 × 1.1 = 0.979

That should be 0.98, and we're close enough.  That difference of 1/1000 is due to rounding the 0.98 / 1.1 to .89.  The actual result of that fraction is 0.89090909...  if we multiply that by 1.1, we get exactly .98.

Y = x^2 + 10x - 171
y = (x - 9)(x + 19)

x - 9= 0 x + 19 = 0
x = 9 x = -19

Answer B covers all requirements... the factored form is
y= (x + 19)(x - 9)
and the zeros are -19 and 9

1st Avenue would be more difficult because it’s rise and run is for every one foot forward it is 3 feet up. Meanwhile avenue 16th would start at (3,1) and the rise and run would be for every 3 feet it would go up 1 foot.

Okay so we get: subtract m + 8 from 5m + 11

5m + 11 = 16 + m or 16m

16m - 8 +m or 8m = 8m or 8 + m
