Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
Plug in any value for x and then you will get y. Use the coordinates to plot.
Example
x= 2
5/2(2)-6
5-6
-1
(2,-1)
Then continue to do the same.
To answer this question with the choices given, you would substitute the possible answers into your work for the base and the height of each dimension on the entire campground.
To find the length of the campground, you multiply each choice by 5 because there are 5 campsites.
For the width, you add each choice to 4.
Then you multiply the total length by the total width to see if your answer is 950 square yards.
See the attached picture for all the work.
Answer:
31 children and 290 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of adults and c = number of children.
a + c = 321
2a + 1.75c = 634.25
Multiply both sides of the the first equation by -2 and add it to the second equation.
-2a - 2c = -642
(+) 2a + 1.75c = 634.25
--------------------------------------
-0.25c = -7.75
Divide both sides by -0.25
c = 31
Use the first equation to find a.
a + c = 321
Substitute 31 for c.
a + 31 = 321
Subtract 31 from both sides.
a = 290
Answer: 31 children and 290 adults
Diversification means wide variety of different investment options available in the portfolio so that it becomes lesser risky towards minimizing losses in down market.
It provides better protection towards common issues like inflation, market instability, war effects, hike in exchange rates, interest rates reduction etc. So, we can conclude that :-
