Ok so I like to go in steps with these questions- first draw a picture and identify your variables.
W=width
L= 3w-1
Now we know that length times width gets us area so we plug in our variables into the area equation.
200 = w(3w-1)
When you foil that equation you end up with a quadratic : 3w^2-w-200 = 0
Either factor that or use the quadratic formula to get
w= 8.33 and w= -8
Since you can't have a negative dimension you need to use 8.33 and plug it back into your length equation.
Final answer:
w= 8.33ft
l= 23.99ft
*Now I simplified the decimals a little bit so you end up with 199.8ft^2 for the area so just add a few decimals on here and there*
You can do this by first finding the y intercept which is the point where x = 0
-3(0) + y = 2
so y intercept is the point (0,2)
Now find the x intercept by putting y = 0
-3x = 2
x = -2/3
So we have 2 points (-2/3, 0) and (0,2) Draw a line through these 2 points and you have the required graph.
Substitute the value of x in equation 2. Then you'll get y=3. Then again substitute the value of y in x=1+y, you'll get x=4
Assume a is not divisible by 10. (otherwise the problem is trivial).
<span>Define R(m) to be the remainder of a^m when divided by 10. </span>
<span>R can take on one of 9 possible values, namely, 1,2,...,9. </span>
<span>Now, consider R(1),R(2),......R(10). At least 2 of them must have the sames value (by the Pigeonhole Principle), say R(i) = R(j) ( j>i ) </span>
<span>Then, a^j - a^i is divisible by 10.</span>
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
12/15=28/a which is a=35
then 35+28=63
14x+7=63 and x would be 4
