Answer:

50 and 28

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=78

x-y=22

to find this, subtract 22 from 78 to get 56

divide 56 by 2 to get 28

y=28

add 22 to 28 to get 50

x=50

to double check add 50 and 28 to get 78

also subtract 28 from 50 to get 22

Answer:

$16\sqrt{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is two times width plus two times length:

$2\sqrt{17} + 2\cdot 7\sqrt{17} = 2\sqrt{17} + 14\sqrt{17} = 16\sqrt{17}$

There is no way to simplify further.

How many solutions does the absolute value equation have?<br><br> I x - 3 I + 2 = -2

choli [55]

Answer:

the correct answer is marked

Step-by-step explanation:

When the graph of the left side of the equation does not intersect the graph of the right side of the equation, there are no solutions.

<em>Additional comment</em>

Even if you extend the domain to complex numbers, there are no solutions. The f(x) = |x| function always returns a positive real value, even for complex numbers.

9 - 4(2p - 1) = 41 Show work

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$p=-7/2=-3.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$9-4(2p-1)=41$

First, let's subtract 9 from both sides:

$-4(2p-1)=32$

Divide both sides by -4:

$2p-1=-8$

Add 1 to both sides:

$2p=-7$

Divide both sides by 2:

$p=-7/2=-3.5$

And we're done!
