Answer:
It is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Unlike the positive side of the number line which increases its value as it goes up in numbers, the negative side of a number line increases its value as it goes goes down in numbers as the more closer a negative number is to the positive side of infinity, the greater value it has. In this instance, zero is the greater number than -6 and all other negative numbers.
Length(l)= 2w
width(w)= w
Perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 72 (simplify expression: divide each side by 2 )
P= w+l= 36 (plug in "2w" for "l")
P= w+(2w)= 36
P= 3w= 36 (divide each side by 3 to find the width)
w= 12 units
find length:
l=2w
l= 2(12)
l= 24 units
Answer:
The length of this rectangle is 24 units and the width is 12 units.
Answer: x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 11 + 9 = 10
Add 11 to each side
3x + 9 = 21
Subtract 9 from each side
3x = 12
Divide each side by 3
x = 4
In order to find the answer to this question, we need to use the quadratic formula.
-b +- √b² - 4ac
2a
In this equation, 5 is a, 16 is b, and -84 is c. You'll notice that the formula says 'plus or minus', meaning that there are two answers depending on whether you add or subtract. Let's start by adding.
-16 + √16² -(4(5)(-84)
2(5)
Use a calculator to simplify. Remember PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction) when deciding which order to go in.
-16 + 44
10
2.8
One solution is 2.8. Now, let's do the same thing, but subtract this time. Keep in mind that the number under the radical stays the same, so you don't have to recalculate that.
-16 - 44
10
-6
The solutions to the equation are 2.8 and -6.
Hope this helps!
