Answer: (-2, 2) and (4, 8)
There are two solutions because the two functions cross each other twice.
Oh easy the answer to that question is 4
Marcia dissolved 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
Bobby dissolves 2 pounds of salt in 7 pints of water
2.11 pints = 1 litre
7 pints = 7/2.11
= 3.32 litre
1 pound =0.45 kg
2 pound = o.45*2 kg
= 0.9 kg
So we find that Bobby is dissolving 0.9kg of salt in 3.32 litre of water
Marcia is dissolving 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
The perimeter of a rectangle, is all of the sides added up.
In a rectangle, there are two widths (right and left), and two lengths (up and down)
So:
Perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length.
To get the equation we just substitute in the values that we are given:
length = (x)
width = (x - 4)
perimeter = 87
So just put these values into: perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length:
87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
_____________________________
Answer:
The equation is: 87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
<em>(note: this can be simplified down like so:</em>
<em>87 = 2x + 2x - 8</em>
<em>87 = 4x - 8</em>
<em>95 = 4x</em>
23.75 = x
