He length of a rectangle is 1 inch less than twice it's width. If the width is w inches,which expression gives the length?

57x2.3 what is the anser pls help

Kamila [148]

Answer:

285.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you change 57 to a decimal (57.0) then you multiply.

57.0×2.3=285.00

Exercise 2.4.2: Proving statements about rational numbers with direct proofs. About Prove each of the following statements using

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Proof: Product of two rational numbers

Using direct proofs.

Let the two rational numbers be A and B.

Such that:

$A = \frac{1}{2}$

$B = \frac{2}{3}$

The product:

$A * B = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{2}{3}$

$A * B = \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{3}$

$A * B = 1 * \frac{1}{3}$

$A * B = \frac{1}{3}$

Proved, because 1/3 is rational

(b) Proof: Quotient of a rational number and a non-zero rational number

Using direct proofs.

Let the two rational numbers be A and B.

Such that:

$A = \frac{1}{2}$

$B = \frac{2}{3}$

The quotient:

$A / B = \frac{1}{2} / \frac{2}{3}$

Express as product

$A / B = \frac{1}{2} / \frac{3}{2}$

$A / B = \frac{1*3}{2*2}$

$A / B = \frac{3}{4}$

Proved, because 3/4 is rational

(c) x + y is rational (missing from the question)

Using direct proofs.

Let x and y be

Such that:

$x = \frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{2}{3}$

The sum:

$x + y = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{3}$

Take LCM

$x + y = \frac{3+4}{6}$

$x + y = \frac{7}{6}$

Proved, because 7/6 is rational

<em>The above proof works for all values of A, B, x and y; as long as they are rational values</em>

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

natka813 [3]

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of

the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

Let x be the amount of time in hours

Let y be the heoght of a candle in centimeters

The two points are then as (9,24.5) and (23,17.5).

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:passing\:through\:}\left(9,\:24.5\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(23,\:17.5\right)$

$\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(9,\:24.5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(23,\:17.5\right)$

$m=\frac{17.5-24.5}{23-9}$

$m=-0.5$

$\mathrm{Plug\:the\:slope\:}-0.5\mathrm{\:into\:}y=mx+b$

$y=\left(-0.5\right)x+b$

$\mathrm{Plug\:in\:}\left(9,\:24.5\right)\mathrm{:\:}\quad \:x=9,\:y=24.5$

$24.5=\left(-0.5\right)\cdot \:9+b$

$-4.5+b=24.5$

$b=29$

$\mathrm{Construct\:the\:line\:equation\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:where\:}\mathbf{m}=-0.5\mathrm{\:and\:}\mathbf{b}=29$

$y=-0.5x+29$

Now plug in x=21, we get

$y=-0.5*21+29=18.5$

Thus the height of the candle after 21 hours is 18.5 centimeters.

Solve the following linear system by graphing <br> 4x+5y=10<br> 3x-3y=21

Inga [223]

Answer:

y = 2

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 10 | ×3 |

3x - 3y = 21 | ×4 |

12x + 15y = 30

12x - 12y = 84

____________--

27y = -54

y = -54/27

y = 2

4x + 5y = 10 | ×3 |

3x - 3y = 21 | ×5 |

12x + 15y = 30

15x - 15y = 105

____________+

27x = 135

x = 135/27

x = 5
