Answer:

length=22

width=21

Step-by-step explanation:

let, length be x and width be y.

x=2y-20

2(x+y)=86

or, 2(2y-20+y)=86

or, 2(3y-20)=86

or, 6y-40=86

or, 6y= 126

or, y= 126/6

y= 21

x= 2×21-20 = 42-20 =22

If a car dealership buy as car for $9000, and wants to make a 45% profit, how much do they need to sell the car for? ​
Degger [83]

Answer:

A car dealership needs $13050 to sell the car to earn the 45% profit if a car dealership buys a car for $9000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Car cost = $9000

Profit percentage = 45% profit

Thus,

Profit amount = 45% of 9000

                       = 45/100 × 9000

                       = 0.45 × 9000

                       = $4050

In order to determine how much a car dealership needs to sell the car to earn the 45% profit, all we need is to add the profit amount i.e. $4050, and the car cost i.e. $9000.

i.e.

Car cost + Profit amount = $9000 + $4050

                                         = $13050

Therefore, a car dealership needs $13050 to sell the car to earn the 45% profit if a car dealership buys s car for $9000.

Leyla drops a penny from a height of 150 m. How long will it take the penny to hit the ground? Use the formula h(t)=−4.9t^2+vt+h
torisob [31]
To determine the time it  takes for the penny to reach the ground, we use the relation of height and time given above. We do  as follows:
<span>
0 =−4.9t^2+(0)t+150
t = sqrt( 150/4.9)
t = 5.53 s

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
