y = - 5
substitute the value of x = 4 into the equation and solve for y
- 12 + 9y = - 57 ( add 12 to both sides )
9y = - 45 ( divide both sides by 9 )
y =
= - 5
This is not possible, unless x = 1.
I have done this question before but i can’t remember
Let L be the length
Let w be the width
Let p be the perimeter
L+w+L+w=p
L=w+20
3L+2w+3L+2w=240
Sub the first equation in for L in the second equation and solve for w
3(w+20)+2w+3(w+20)+2w=240
3w+60+2w+3w+60+2w=240
10w+120=240
10w=240-120
10w=120
W=120/10
W=12
Sub w into the first equation and solve for L
L=w+20
L=12+20
L=32
Hope this helps!
Answer:
-3 <x <-1
Step-by-step explanation:
|x + 2| < 1
There are two solutions, one positive and one negative ( remember to flip the inequality for the negative)
x+2 <1 and x+2 > -1
Subtract 2 from each side
x+2-2 < 1-2 and x+2-2 > -1-2
x < -1 and x >-3
-3 <x <-1
