LW = 45
L + 2W = 19
L = 19-2W
substituting for L :-
W(19-2W) = 45
-2W^2 + 19W = 45
2W^2 - 19W + 45 = 0
W = 5 or 4.5
If W = 5, L = 9
If W = 4.5, L = 10
So there are 2 possible answers.
Given:
Identify the dollar amount due on a sample of 49 credit cards.
The amount due on the next payment is any one of the averages that mode,median or mean can be used.
Hi there! Yes, x = 2 is a solution to this equation.
Let's solve this equation step by step!

Subtract 2 from both sides.

Now divide both sides of the equation by -4 (and remember that when dividing two negatives we end up with a positive).

And therefore x = 2 is a solution to this equation.
~ Hope this helps you!
Divide both sides by negative two
the answer is x = -1
Change all the terms so that they have a common denominator
