Answer:
a = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
If the rate of change is -8, subtract 8 from your y value of 27. And if 19 is correct, you should be able to subtract 8, and get 11 as the next number in the function, which you do, so 19 is the value of a.
L=16
W=21
Set up a systems of equations:
x=length
y=width
xy=336
x+5=y
Use substitution to solve:
x(x+5)=336
x^2+5x=336
Solve using factoring:
x^2+5x-336=0
(x-16)(x+21)=0
x=16 and x= -21
Since length can't be negative, l=16
To find width, plug length into the first equation:
(16)y=336
y=21
So...
L=16

I believe the answer will be t + 40 = race time
Answer:
x=14
Step-by-step explanation:
4x +15 =71
4x =71 - 15
4x =56
x=56 :4
x=14
4 ×14 +15 =71
56 +15 =71
71 =71
