Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
X=length
y=width
Area (rectangle)=length x width
we suggest this system of equations:
y=x/5
xy=9/20
solve this system of equations by substitution method:
x(x/5)=9/20
x²/5=9/20
Least common multiple=20
4x²=9
x²=9/4
x=⁺₋√(9/4)
we have two solutions:
x₁=-3/2 it does not validate
x₂=3/2 ⇒y=x/5=(3/2)/5=3/10
The dimensions of the lake are:
lengh=3/2 miles
width=3/10 miles
to check:
Area=3/2 miles x 3/10 miles=9/20 miles².
width is 1/5 the length of the lake ⇒ 3/10 miles=(3/2) /5 miles
The Correct answer is y = 2x - 1
(I took the test and this was the answer)
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. A polynomial function has a zero value at x=3 for the <span>expression where one factor is x-3. This factor when x=3 will always result to a zero value no matter what you multiply to it. Hope this answers the question.</span>
Y-y1= m(x-x1) point-slope form
y-0= -3(x-5)
solve this point-slope form to slope-intercept form. Use the information to graph the line.
