The length of a rectangle is 15ft greater than the width. The area is 100 square ft. Find the length and the Width.​

Step-by-step explanation:

so let's say that the width is x then the length is x+15

and the area of a square is length times width

x(x+15)=100

x^2+15x-100=0

(x+20)(x-5)=0

x=5 or x=-20 but a side length can't be negative so x would equal 5

Length=x+15 with 5 as x

Length=20

Width=5

Hope that helps :)

Answer:

Let the Width be x then ATQ ,length would be x+15

Area of a Rectangle

length \times width

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 15) \times x = 100 \\ x {}^{2}  + 15x = 100 \\ x {}^{2}  + 15x - 100 = 0 \\ x {}^{2}   +  20x - 5x - 100 = 0 \\ x(x  +  20) - 5x(x + 20) \\ (x - 5)(x + 20) \\ so...... \\ x = 5 \:

<h2>x = 5=> Width</h2><h2>x +15 = 20=> Length </h2>

Keisha is reading a 350 page book at a rate of 27 pages per day. Use a point-slope equation to determine how many pages she will
Scrat [10]

Answer:

She will still have 80 pages left to read after 10 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keisha is reading the book at  a rate of 27 pages per day. The book has 350 pages. So , after x days , the no. of pages remaining to read is,

y = 350 - 27 \times x ---------------(1)

Here, the given value of x is 10. So, putting x = 10 in (1) we get,

y = 350 - 27 \times 10

        = 80

What is the answer to this geometry problem
cricket20 [7]
A lot of work but you're lucky cuz I am bored.

Because we were not given any specific point to start off with. I choose (2,2), which is shown in red as 1. Note that 1 box = 1 unit.

We translate it 2 times.
a) (x+5)(y+3) = (2+5)(2+3) = (7,5) is our new point (shown in brown as 2)
     Translation process shown in yellow.

b) (x-4)(y+2) = (7-4)(5+2) = (3,7) is our final point (shown in orange as 3)
    Note that we use the 2nd point for the second translation as required.
    Translation process shown in lime.

We can therefore determine from the picture below that you can use the translation (x+1)(y+5), which the translation process is shown in blue.
Proof: (x+1)(y+5) = (2+1)(2+5) = (3,7)

Now let's do it again, except we do the second translation first and the first translation last.

c) (x-4)(y+2) = (2-4)(2+2) = (-2,4) is our new point (shown in purple as 4)
    Translation process shown in pink.

d) (x+5)(y+3) = (-2+5)(4+3) = (3,7) is our final point (shown in orange as 3)
    Translation process shown in dark blue.
    Same rules as (b). Notice how the final point is still the same? Therefore it     makes no difference.

Hope I helped a lot :P

A company has a manufacturing plant that is producing quality jackets. They find that in order to produce 150 jackets in a month
Masja [62]

Answer:

y = 14x + 3400

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent

- number of jackets with x

- costs of jackets with y

So, we have:

(x_1,y_1) = (150,5500)

(x_2,y_2) = (370,8580)

Required

Write an equation in form of y = mx + b

First, we need to determine the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{8580 - 5500}{370 - 150}

m = \frac{3080}{220}

m = 14\\

The equation is calculated using:

y-y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Where

m = 14\\

(x_1,y_1) = (150,5500)

So, we have:

y - 5500 = 14(x - 150)

y - 5500 = 14x - 2100

Make y the subject

y = 14x - 2100 + 5500

y = 14x + 3400
