Let

width be x
Length=8x-38
Area=4050m^2

We know

$\boxed{\sf Area =Length\times Width}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x(8x-38)=4050$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 8x^2-38x=4050$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 8x^2-38x-4050=0$

By solving

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{81}{4}\:or\:x=25$

Take x as 25

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Length=8x-38=8(25)-38=200-38=162m$

The savings account offering which of these APRs and compounding periods

Ann [662]

Answer:

The answer is "Option C"

Step-by-step explanation:

The using formula $= (1+\frac{r}{n})^n -1$

→r = rate

→ n = compounded value

In choice a:

When compounded is monthly $4.0784\%$

$n = 12$

$\to (1+ \frac{0.040784}{12})^{12} = 1.0403-1 = 0.0403$

In choice b:

When compounded is quarterly $4.0792\%$

$n = 3\\\\\to (1+ \frac{0.040792}{12} )^{3} = 1.0102-1 = .0102$

In choice c:

Whenn compounded is daily $4.0730 \%$

$n = 365\\\\\to (1+ \frac{0.040730}{12})^{365} = 3.328-1 = 2.328$

In choice d:

When compounded is semiannually $4.0798\%$

$n = 2\\\\\to (1+ \frac{0.040798}{12})^{2} = 1.0066-1 = 0.0066$

Lena [83]

Answer:

y'(t)=ky(t)(100-y(t))

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of y(t) at any time is the derivative of y with respect to time y, y'(t)

If y(t) is the percent of the population advocating war at time t

then 100-y(t) is the percent of the population not advocating war

The product of the percentage of the population advocating war and the percentage not advocating war would be

y(t)(100-y(t))

If the rate of change of y(t) at any time is proportional to the product of the percentage of the population advocating war and the percentage not advocating war, then

y'(t)=ky(t)(100-y(t))

where <em>k is the constant of proportionality </em>

Mr. Anderson wrote (7x9) 103 on the board. What is the value of that expression

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

6,489

Step-by-step explanation:

first you would multiply 7 and 9, which would be 63

7 x 9 = 63

then you would multiply 63 by 103 since they are being multiplied

63 x 103 = 6,489

Graph a line that contains the point (-5,-3) and has a slope of -2

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

-->

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph (-5,-3) and use the slope, -2, to find another point. -2 can also be written as $-\frac{2}{1}$

$\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{-2}{1}$ and $\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{2}{-1}$ **

Use both. This works because either way, they will lie on the same line with the same slope. So, starting at (-5,-3), go down two points (-)* and to the left 1 (+)*, then, starting at (-5,-3) again, go up two points (+)* then to the right 1 point (-)*.

* If the number is negative, you either go down or to the right. If the number is positive, you go up and to the left.

**Rise over run refers to the change in the y-axis and the change in the x-axis: $\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{y-axis}{x-axis}$ . Only one number is negative because, if both were negative, that would make a positive number, but the slope is -2, not 2.

Another way you could do this is by finding points first. All you need to do is turn the slope into a "point". Remember, 2 is the y and 1 is the x:

$-2=-\frac{2}{1} = (1,-2)$ and $(-1,2)$

Then, using (-5,-3) and your new points, add them separately:

$(-5,-3)+(1,-2)\\(-5+1,-3+(-2))\\(-5+1,-3-2)\\(-4,-5)$

(-4,-5) is one point

$(-5,-3)+(-1,2)\\(-5+(-1),-3+2)\\(-5-1,-3+2)\\(-6,-1)$

(-6,-1) is another point. Connect the three points. You can check your work on the graph:
