70=A=Lw

L=2w-4

70=(2w-4)w

70=2w²-4w

70=2(w²-2w)

35=w²-2w

0=w²-2w-35

0=(w+7)(w-5)

-7=w or w=5

Measurements aren't negative

w=5 ft

L=2(5)-4

L=6 ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

She makes $325 a week, so go to the 8th row, for weekly income of $300 to $400. She claims 2 exemptions, so go to the third column labeled 2. The value is 2. That means the $2 is withheld from her paycheck on top of the 6.25% for FICA. The total is therefore:

$2 + (0.0625) ($325)

$22.3125

Rounded to the nearest cent, that's $22.31.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

85.95 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Alberto ran 45 kilometers on Monday.

On Tuesday, he runs 91% of the distance he ran on Monday.

We need to find how far did he run on Tuesday. It can be given by :

$T=45+45\times \dfrac{91}{100}\\\\=85.95\ km$

So, he run 85.95 km on Tuesday.

What is a simplified eCarlotta thinks that 3y + 5y3 is the same as 8y4. Which statement shows that it is NOT the same?Xpression

stira [4]

Questions:

(a) What is a simplified expression for (x + y) – (x – y)?

(b) Carlotta thinks that $3y + 5y^3$ is the same as $8y^4$ . Which statement shows that it is NOT the same?

Answer:

$(x + y) - (x - y) =2y$

$3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

$(x + y) - (x - y)$

Required

Simplify

$(x + y) - (x - y)$

Open brackets

$(x + y) - (x - y) = x + y - x + y$

Collect Like Terms

$(x + y) - (x - y) = x - x+ y + y$

$(x + y) - (x - y) = y + y$

$(x + y) - (x - y) =2y$

Solving (b):

Given

$3y + 5y^3$ and $8y^4$

Required

Which expression shows they are not the same

The expression that shows this is:

$3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4$

Take for instance; y=2

Substitute 2 for y in $3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4$

$3*2 + 5*2^3 \ne 8*2^4$

Evaluate all exponents

$9 + 5*8 \ne 8*16$

$9 + 40 \ne 128$

$49 \ne 128$

The above expression supports $3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4$
