elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

  5x +4y

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of side lengths. That fact can be used to find z, the length of the third side.

  (2x +3y) +(5x -2y) +z = 12x +5y . . . . sum of sides is perimeter

  z = (12x +5y) -(7x +y) . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (7x+y) from both sides

  z = 5x +4y . . . . . . . . . collect terms; the length of the third side

The third side of the triangle is (5x +4y).

The area of a rectangle has decreased by 2%.
MissTica

Answer:

The other side was decreased to approximately .89 times its original size, meaning it was reduced by approximately 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the basic equation for the area of a rectangle:

l × w = a

And now express the changes described above as an equation, using "p" as the amount that the width is changed:

(l × 1.1) × (w × p) = a × .98

Now let's rearrange both of those equations to solve for a / l.  Starting with the first and easiest:

w = a/l

now the second one:

1.1l × wp = 0.98a

wp = 0.98a / 1.1l

1.1 wp / 0.98 = a/l

Now with both of those equalling a/l, we can equate them:

1.1 wp / 0.98 =  w

We can then divide both sides by w, eliminating it

1.1wp / 0.98w = w/w

1.1p / 0.98 = 1

And solve for p

1.1p = 0.98

p = 0.98 / 1.1

p ≈ 0.89

So the width is scaled by approximately 89%

We can double check that too.  Let's multiply that by the scaled length and see if we get the two percent decrease:

.89 × 1.1 = 0.979

That should be 0.98, and we're close enough.  That difference of 1/1000 is due to rounding the 0.98 / 1.1 to .89.  The actual result of that fraction is 0.89090909...  if we multiply that by 1.1, we get exactly .98.

For the equation, complete the solution. 8x + y = −7 <br> (x, y) = , 1
butalik [34]

Answer:

(x, y) = (-1, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + y = −7

for y = 1

8x + 1 = -7

subtract 1 from boh sides

8x = -8

divide bot sides by 8

x = -1

(x, y) = (-1, 1)

Jane needs to buy mulch to cover a circular garden
scoray [572]

Answer:

$3089.4

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is a locus of a point such that its distance from a point known as the center is always constant.

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

Area = πr²; where r is the radius of the circle.

From the image attached, we can see that the garden is circular with a radius of 5.5 yard. Hence:

Amount of mulch needed to cover garden = area of garden = πr² = π(5.5)²  = 95 yd²

Since mulch cost $32.52 per square yard, hence:

Cost of mulch needed = $32.52 per yd² * 95 yd² = $3089.4
