<h3><u>The length is equal to 13.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 8.</u></h3>
l = 2w - 3
2l + 2w = 42
Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.
2(2w - 3) + 2w = 42
Distributive property.
4w - 6 + 2w = 42
Combine like terms.
6w - 6 = 42
Add 6 to both sides.
6w = 48
Divide both sides by 6.
w = 8
Now that we have a value for w, we can solve for the exact value of l.
l = 2(8) - 3
l = 16 - 3
l = 13
The correct question is
<span>What is the equation of a line, in general form, that passes through point (1, -2) and has a slope of 1/3
</span>
we have that
point (1,-2)
slope m=1/3
so
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y+2=(1/3)*(x-1)----> multiply by 3---> 3y+6=x-1
x-3y-1-6=0------> x-3y-7=0
the answer is
<span>x - 3y - 7 = 0</span>
1/4 is the same thing as 25%. So we know that we have to find 25% of 2000 pounds, which is 1 ton. Convert 25% into a decimal and then multiply.
2000 times .25 is 500.
One fourth of one ton is 500 pounds.
It's <em>370,000.00000...</em> with as many zeros as you want after the decimal point.
Answer:
684
Step-by-step explanation:
Using proportions (equivalent ratios), we can find the number of students that make up the 57% out of the total number of people:
Cross-multiply: 100x = (57)(1200) or 100x = 68,400
Divide: 100x/100 = 68,400/100
Solve for x: x = 684 students
