Answer:

8m ×3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W meters respectively.

Area of rectangle= LW

LW= 28 -----(1)

L= 2W +1 -----(2)

Subst. (2) into (1):

(2W +1)(W)= 28

<em>Expand:</em>

2W² +W= 28

<em>-28 on both sides:</em>

2W² +W -28= 0

<em>Factorise</em><em>:</em>

(W +4)(2W -7)= 0

W +4=0 or 2W -7=0

W= -4 (reject) or W= 3.5

Substitute W= 3.5 into (2):

L= 2(3.5) +1

L= 7 +1

L= 8

∴ The dimensions of the rectangle is 8m ×3.5m.

84=7(6+a) and -84= -6 (p + 6)
m_a_m_a [10]
84= 7(6+a)
84= 42 +7a
84-42= 42-42 +7a
42= 7a
42/7= 7a/7
6= a

-84= -6( p+6)
-84= -6p -36
-84+36= -6p -36+36
-48= -6p
-48/-6= -6p/-6
8 =p

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is a series of horizontal lines. A solid dot goes wherever there is an "or equal to" symbol in the inequality. An open dot goes where the point is not included in the function definition (but nearby points are).
