The variable “x” can be defined as the price of regular gas.
The equation is x = x - (.02)7
x = x - (.02)7
(.02)7 = .14
x = x - .14
X - X = nothing so it just leaves you with -.14
The answer is that the gas price changed by a total of - 14 cents or -0.14
It’s J, 3 - X would equal 3 - (-2) which turns into 3+2 which equals 5 but 5 is not greater than 10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given points</u>
<u>Slope-intercept form</u>
<u>Slope of the line is</u>
- m = (6a - 2a)/( -5a - a) = 4a/(-6a) = - 2/3
<u>The y-intercept is:</u>
- 2a = -2/3*a + b
- b = 2a + 2/3a
- b= 8/3a
<u>So the line is:</u>
Answer: The length is 13 inches and the width is 11 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the rectangle.
Let W represent the width of the rectangle.
The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = LW
The area of the rectangle is 143 square inches. This means that
LW = 143 - - - - - - - - - - - - --1
The rectangle's length is 2 in more than its width. This means that
L = W + 2
Substituting L = W + 2 into equation 1, it becomes
W(W + 2) = 143
W² + 2W - 143 = 0
W² + 13W - 11W - 143 = 0
W(W + 13) - 11(W + 13) = 0
W + 13 = 0 or W - 11 = 0
W = - 13 or W = 11
Since the width cannot be negative, it means that W = 11
L = W + 2 = 11 + 2
L = 13
