Answer:
From least to greatest: -2, 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Set each factor equal to 0 and solve
2x + 4 =0
2x = -4
x = -2
3x - 2 = 0
3x = 2
x = 2/3
The solutions are -2 and 2/3
Answer:
$13,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest = principal × rate × time
principal= $9000
Rate= 12/100=0•12
Time=5years
Simple interest =PRT
= 9000× 0•12 × 5
= 5400
Total amount to be paid = 9000 + 5400
= $13400
Answer:
Let x and y be the two numbers. Then
yx=57 and x−y=20
Cross multiplying the proportion
5x=7y or y=75x
So, x−y=20
x−75x=20⇒77x−5x=72x=20
⇒x=2140=70
y=75x=75×70=50
So smaller number is 50.
Check :yx=5070=57 and 70−50=20
Answer:
- 2(L +W) ≤ 600
- W ≤ 200
- L ≥ 2W
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the problem wording means the length is to be at least 2 times <em>as long as</em> the width. (<em>Longer than</em> usually refers to a difference, not a scale factor.)
If we let "W" and "L" represent the width and length, respectively, then we can translate the problem statement to ...
2(L + W) ≤ 600 . . . . . . the perimeter is twice the sum of length and width
W ≤ 200 . . . . . . . . . . . . the width is at most 200 inches
L ≥ 2W . . . . . . . . . . . . . the length is at least twice the width
