Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
Answer:
(a)The missing measurements are 9 feet and 
.
(b)Therefore, the length of the fence is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram of the yard is attached below.
(a)I have labeled the missing dimensions of the yard as x and y.
Therefore:
Similarly:
The missing measurements are 9 feet and .
(b)Length of the Fence
The fence is rectangular shaped with:
Length = 
Width = 
Perimeter of a Rectangle = 2(L+W)
Therefore, the length of the fence
Hello there!
A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.
A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.
The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.
The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.
I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
