Answer:

Length is 30cm

Width is 13cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x cm;

The length will be 2x + 4 cm

Perimeter = 86cm

Perimeter is given by (2 × length) + (2 × width)

2(2x + 4) + 2x = 86cm

4x + 8 + 2x = 86cm

6x = 86 - 8 = 78cm

x = 78/6 = 13cm

Width (x) = 13cm

Length = 2(13) + 4 = 26 + 4 = 30cm

Solve the following inequality: 3-5x-x^2>=0
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

-5/2+-1/2√37≤x≤-5/2+1/2√37

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the critical points

-x^2-5x+3=0

For this equation: a=-1, b=-5, c=3

−1x^2+−5x+3=0

x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a

x=−(−5)±√(−5)2−4(−1)(3)/2(-1)

x=5±√37 /−2

x=-5/2+1/2√37

Step 2: Check intervals in between critical points

x≤-5/2+1/2 √37 (Doesn't work in original inequality)

-5/2+-1/2√37≤x≤-5/2+1/2√37 (Works in original inequality)

x≥-5/2+1/2 √37 (Doesn't work in original inequality)

What is the constant of proportionality for the graph? The graph is attached
hichkok12 [17]
The answer is A. 0.5. 

When you go out 1 on the X-axis you go up 0.5 on the Y-axis, thus the ratio is 0.5.

This is not easy to see, but if you go out 10 on the X-axis, it is easy to see that the Y-axis is at 5. Again giving the ratio 5/10=0.5

tickets for a cinema costs £4 and £5. There were 223 customers who paid a total of £936. How many bought £4 tickets
noname [10]

The number of people who bought £4 tickets are 139.

<h3>How to illustrate the equation?</h3>

Let £4 tickets be x

Let £5 tickets be y.

Therefore based on the information given, this will be:

x + y = 223 ..... i

4x + 5y = 936 ..... ii

From equation i

x = 213 - y

Put this into equation ii

4x + 5y = 936

4(213 - y) + 5y = 936

852 - 4y + 5y = 936

Collect like terms

y = 84

This implies that the number of £5 tickets is 84.

Recall that x + y = 223

x + 84 = 223

x = 223 - 84

x = 139

The number of £4 tickets is 139
