Answer:

width: 5.557 m
length: 7.557 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

a rectangular patio of width w meters, length w+2 meters, and area 42 m²

Find:

width and length

Solution:

The area is ...

A = LW

42 = w(w +2)

43 = w² +2w +1 . . . . . . add 1 to complete the square

√43 = w+1

w = √43 -1 ≈ 5.557 . . . meters

l = w+2 = √43 +1 ≈ 7.557 . . . meters

The width and length of the patio are 5.557 m and 7.557 m, respectively.

Answer:

answers in the explanation cz I'm too lazy to type :(

not entirely sure tho

Step-by-step explanation:

w²+2w-42=0

*quadratic formula*

w= -1+ square root 43 m

or w= -1- square root 43 m

then since the length is 2m more than w

add 2 to both answers

l= 1+ square root 43 m

l=1- square root 43 m

Which relation does not represent a function

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

For example, if given a graph, you could use the vertical line test; if a vertical line intersects the graph more than once, then the relation that the graph represents is not a function.

On a certain hot summer's day, 335 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are $1.25 for children and $2.00 fo

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children ($1.75 each) and a represent the number of adults ( $2.00 each).

We know that there were 340 people total, so c + a = 340. This implies that a = 340 - c

We also know that $1.75 c + $2.00 a = $609.25

By substituting a with 340 -c we have $1.75 c + $2.00 (340 -c) = $609.25

Use the distributive property to obtain $1.75 c + $680 - $2.00 c = $609.25

Subtract $680 from both sides and combine like terms to get - $0.25 c = -

$70.75

Now, divide both sides by -$0.25 to get c = 283, the number of children.

The number of adults is 340 - c or 340 - 283 = 57
