Answer:

Here's what we know:

A = Lw (Area is length times width)

L = 2w + 6 (length is twice the width plus 6)

A = 140 (Area is 140 m2)

Plug in the variable values:

140 = w(2w + 6)

Distribute:

140 = 2w2 + 6w

Subtract 140:

2w2 + 6w - 140 = 0

Factor out a 2:

2(w2 + 3w - 70) = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

w2 + 3w - 70 = 0

(w + m)(w - n)

When we factor out the quadratic, we know it's going to be a +/- situation because the c value in the quadratic is negative, and the two numbers are going to be three away, the plus next to the 3 meaning that the larger number is going to be positive:

(w + 10)(w - 7) = 0

w = -10, 7

We can't have a negative length, so we can toss out the -10, leaving us with w = 7 meters.

L = 2 * 7 + 6

L = 14 + 6

L = 20

Check:

140 = 20 * 7

140 = 140

Equation 1 is 2W - 6 = L
equation 2 is 140= W * L

L=10
W=8

35w+9w+35w^3+25w^3–25w^3<br><br>pls help
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

35w^3 + 44w

<em><u>Combine Like Terms:</u></em>

= 35w + 9w + 35w^3 + 25w^3 - 25w^3

= (35w^3 + 25w^3 - 25w^3) +(35w + 9w)

= 35w^3 + 44w

Hope this is right ♡

Stephanie wants to buy s tomato plants.
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Required Expression : 7·(s + d) - 25

Step-by-step explanation :

Cost of each plant both buys = $7

No. of plants Stephanie wants to buy = s

Total cost of plants bought by Stephanie = 7·s

No. of plants Diego wants to buy = d

Total cost of plants bought by Diego = 7·d

Total cost = 7·s + 7·d

                 = 7·(s + d)

Discount applied through coupon = $25

So, Total cost of all their plants with discount = 7·(s + d) - 25

Kelly has 4 times as many songs on her music player as Lou. Tiffany has 6 times as many songs on her
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

113

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to know how much Lou has first !

so we have to do 682 / 6 which = 113

then 113 / 4 = 28.2

28.2 is how much Lou has

so we will go back and multiply the 4

28.2 x 4 =113

Determine the domain of the function h=9x/x(x^2-49)
Juliette [100K]

ANSWER

( -  \infty , - 7) \cup( - 7 , 0) \cup(0 , 7 )\cup(7 , +   \infty )

EXPLANATION

The given function is

h(x) =  \frac{9x}{x( {x}^{2} - 49) }

This function is defined for values where the denominator is not equal to zero.

x( {x}^{2}  - 49) \ne0

x(x - 7)(x + 7) = 0

The domain is

x \ne - 7, x \ne0, \: and \:  x \ne 7,

Or

( -  \infty , - 7) \cup( - 7 , 0) \cup(0 , 7 )\cup(7 , +   \infty )
