I suppose the / are absolute value lines.... so ill answer it that way, -(-2) simplifies to 2. -/-2/ simplifies to -2
Width of the rectangle is 13 ft and length of the rectangle is 33 ft
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Given perimeter of the rectangle = 92 ft. Let the width be x, then the length of the rectangle = 2x + 7. Use the formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width) to find the dimensions.
92 = 2(2x + 7 + x) = 2(3x + 7) = 6x + 14
⇒ 92 = 6x + 14
⇒ 78 = 6x
⇒ x = 78/6
∴ x = 13 ft
⇒ Width of the rectangle = 13 ft
∴ Length of the rectangle = 2x + 7 = 26 + 7 = 33 ft
You want to find the area of the circle. The formula for the area of a circle is A=πr^2 (Area=pi times radius squared). The diameter is the distance across the circle. Radius is half the diameter. Diameter=3. 3 divided by 2 equals 1.5. So, plug it into the equation. A=π1.5^2 (Area=pi times 1.5 squared).
Answer:
the independent variable in this equation is a because its the answer and cannot be changed
