Answer:

Area of the rectangle(A) is given by:

where, l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

A rectangle has an area of 72 in²

⇒A = 72 in²

then;

It is given that:

The length and the width of the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5.

Length of new rectangle become = 3.5l

Width of new rectangle become = 3.5 w

then;

Area of new rectangle  = (Length of new rectangle)(Width of new rectangle)

⇒Area of new rectangle = (3.5l)(3.5w) =12.25(lw)

Substitute the given values we have;

Therefore, the area of the new rectangle is, 882 in²

Given :-

  • a² - 2a - b² = 0
  • 2b + 2ab = 0

To find :-

  • Value of a and b .

Solution :-

<u>Taking</u><u> </u><u>second</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • 2b + 2ab = 0
  • 2b ( 1 + a ) = 0
  • 2b = 0 or (1+a) = 0
  • b = 0 , a = -1

<u>Substitute</u><u> </u><u>in </u><u>first </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • a² - 2a - b² = 0

<u>When </u><u>b </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>,</u>

  • a² - 2a - 0² = 0
  • a² - a = 0
  • a( a -1) =0
  • a = 0 , 1

<u>When </u><u>a </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>,</u>

  • (-1)² - 2*(-1) - b² = 0
  • 1 + 2 - b² = 0
  • b² = 3
  • b = ±√3

<u>Answer </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • a = 0,1 ; b = 0
  • a = -1 , b = ±√3

Graph the solution of the inequality: 3/7 (35x-14) ≤ 21x/2 + 3
hammer [34]
Hello there!

In order to graph the solution, we need to solve it first.

So let's start....

3/7(35x - 14) ≤ 21x/2 + 3

15x -6 ≤ 21x/2 + 3

15x - 21x/2 ≤ 3 + 6

9x/2 ≤ 9

x ≤ 9* 2/9

x ≤ 18/9

x ≤ 2

See the picture for the graph

Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.

Thanks!
