Answer:

x = 18 y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x

let the second number be y

x = y + 8..... equation 1

2x + y = 46.... equation 2

x is the larger number

y is the smaller number.

Rearrange the equation and add equation 1 to equation 2.

x - y = 8

+ 2x + y = 46

-------------------

3x + 0 = 54

3x = 54

divide both sides by 3

x = 54/3

x = 18

Substitute x = 18 into equation 1

x = y + 8

18 = y + 8

collect like terms

y = 18-8

y = 10

Marquise has 200200200 meters of fencing to build a rectangular garden.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

2500 Square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the garden area (as a function of its width) as:

A(w)=-w^2+100w

The maximum possible area occurs when we maximize the area. To do this, we take the derivative, set it equal to zero and solve for w.

A'(w)=-2w+100

-2w+100=0

-2w=-100

w=50 meters

Since Marquise has 200 meters of fencing to build a rectangular garden,

Perimeter of the proposed garden=200 meters

Perimeter=2(l+w)

2(l+50)=200

2l+100=200

2l=200-100=100

l=50 meters

The dimensions that will yield the maximum area are therefore:

Length =50 meters

Width=50 meters

Maximum Area Possible =50 X 50 =<u>2500 square meters.</u>

As of December 31, 2020 $ 13,000. As of December 31, 2021 $ 25,000The enacted tax rate was 25% for 2020 and thereafter.What shou
blondinia [14]

Answer:

$3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the balance in Kent deferred tax liability is shown below:        

= {(December 31 2021) × (enacted tax rate)} - {(December 31 2020) × (Enacted tax rate)}

= {($25,000 × 25%) - ($13,000 × 25%)}

= $6,250 - $3,250

= $3,000

Along with the journal entry is also shown for better understanding

Income tax expense $41,500

       To Deferred tax liability $3,000

       To Income tax payable $38,250    ($153,000 × 25%)

(Being the income tax expense is recorded)

We debited the income tax expense as it increases the expenses account and on other side we credited the other two accounts as these are also increased

HELP PLEASE
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

False,

(-4, -1) is not a solution of the given system of equations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

3x+8y =20            .......[1]

-5x+y =19              ......[2]

To determine (-4, -1) is a solution

Substitute x = -4 and y = -1 in both the equations, if they both satisfied then it is a solution.

3(-4)+8(-1)=20  

⇒-12-8 = 20

⇒-20 = 20         False.

-5(-4)+(-1)=19

⇒20-1 = 19

⇒19=19             True.

Since, the given statement is not true

because the ordered pair (-4, -1) does not satisfy the given system of equations.
