Step-by-step explanation:

Let length is x and breadth is y.

The formula for the area and the perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

A = xy

P = 2(x+y)

Here, A = 8 mi² and P = 16 miles

Putting all the values,

xy = 8

y=8/x ......(1)

2(x+y) = 16

x+y = 8 .....(2)

Put equation (2) in equation (1) as follows :

x+\dfrac{8}{x}=8\\\\x^2+8=8x\\\\x^2-8x+8=0

When we solve, we get :

x = 6.82 miles, 1.17 miles

Put the value of x in equation (1)

When x = 6.82 miles,

y = 8/6.82

y = 1.17 miles

When x = 1.17 miles,

y = 8/1.17

y = 6.82 miles

Hence, the dimension of the field is 6.82 miles and 1.17 miles.

In a cafeteria,
____ [38]

Answer:

2 students

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the number of students eating either salads and sandwiches. Then, you add the number of students eating salads and sandwiches together. Finally, you will subtract that number from the 12 total students

<h3>2/3 * 12/1 = 8 (sandwiches)</h3><h3>1/6 * 12/1 = 2 (salads)</h3><h3>8 + 2 = 10 (combined)</h3><h3>12 - 10 = 2 students</h3><h3 />

The product of (3 + 2i) and a complex number is (17 + 7i).
Vesna [10]
A+bi is a complex number

(3+2i)(a+bi)=17+7i
remember
i²=-1
so
expand and solve
a is the ral part
bi is the imaginary part
ok so
if Ac+Be=dc+fe where c=c and e=e then A=d and B=f

(3+2i)(a+bi)=17+7i
expand/distribute/FOIL
3a+2ai+3bi+2bi²=17+7i
3a+2bi+2ai+2bi=17+7i
3a-2b+2ai+2bi=17+7i
real parts are 3a-2b
imaginary is 2ai+2bi
so

3a-2b=17 and
2ai+2bi=7i

we need to solve
2nd equation, divide both sides by i
2a+2b=7
multiply by -1 and add to other equation

3a+2b=17
<u>-2a-2b=-7 +</u>
1a+0b=10
a=10

subsitue
2a+2b=7
2(10)+2b=7
20+2b=7
2b=-13
b=-13/2


the complex number is
10-(13/2)i or
10-6.5i

I need help on this please!!
marin [14]

Answer:

In fifteen years, Alexis would have 9200. In twenty years she would have 9600

Step-by-step explanation:

10% for interest of 8000= 80.

80 (interest for one year) * 15 (fifteen years)= 1200

1200 plus the original amount is 9200.

80 (interest for one year) * 20 ( twenty years)= 1600

1600 plus the original amount is 9600

Is the point (−4,−17) a solution to the inequality 2y−3x&gt;12?
Arturiano [62]

substitute the values for the letters

2(-17) = -34

3(-4) = -12

-34 - -12 = -34 +12 = -22

-22 is not greater than 12 so it is not a solution
