Answer: The width of the library is 22feet.

Perimeter = length+ length+ width+ width

The problem is telling us that the perimeter is 116 and the length is 36. So let’s plug it in and solve for width which equal w
w= width
Step 1: 116= 36+ 36+ w+w

Step 2: 116=72+ 2w

Step 3: 116= 72+2w
-72 -72

Step 4: 44=2w

Step 5: divide 2w on both sides ( 44 divided by 2)

Step 6: w= 22

What system of equations is shown on the graph below?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The equation of the line passing through the points (-2,0) and (0,-4)

$\frac{y - y1}{x - x1} = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

$\frac{y - 0}{x - ( - 2)} = \frac{ - 4 - 0}{0 - ( - 2)} = \frac{ - 4}{2} = - 2$

$y = - 2(x + 2) \\ y = - 2x - 4$

$2x + y = - 4$

The equation of the line passing through the points (0,-2) and (4,0)

$\frac{y - y1}{x - x1} = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \:$

$\frac{y - ( - 2)}{x - 0} = \frac{0 - ( - 2)}{4 - 0}$

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

$x - 2y = 4$

Option B

x minus 2 y = 4 and 2 x + y = negative 4

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

There are 1500 non fiction books and 500 fiction books currently in the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Number of books = 2000

Let the number of fiction books be 'x'.

Now given:

There are 3 times as many non-fiction books as fiction books.

Number of non fiction books = $3x$

We need to find the number of non-fiction and fiction books.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Total Number of books is equal to sum of the number of non-fiction and fiction books.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+3x=2000\\\\4x=2000$

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{2000}{4}\\\\x= 500\ books$

Number of fiction books = 500

Number of non fiction books = $3x=3\times 500 =1500$

Hence There are 1500 non fiction books and 500 fiction books currently in the store.
