Answer:
P = 2l + 2w
solve for w
re-write
2l + 2w = P
subtract 2l from both sides
2w = P - 2l
divide both sides by 2
w = (P - 2l) / 2
Answer is B
w = (P - 2l) / 2
Answer: 3/14
Step-by-step explanation: P(Orange jelly bean) = 9/42 = 3/14
Ok so I like to go in steps with these questions- first draw a picture and identify your variables.
W=width
L= 3w-1
Now we know that length times width gets us area so we plug in our variables into the area equation.
200 = w(3w-1)
When you foil that equation you end up with a quadratic : 3w^2-w-200 = 0
Either factor that or use the quadratic formula to get
w= 8.33 and w= -8
Since you can't have a negative dimension you need to use 8.33 and plug it back into your length equation.
Final answer:
w= 8.33ft
l= 23.99ft
*Now I simplified the decimals a little bit so you end up with 199.8ft^2 for the area so just add a few decimals on here and there*
If we multiply the bottom equation by 2 and move x to the right, it becomes:
4y = 2x-38
Now we can substitute it for the 4y in the top equation:
3x + (2x-38) = -23 => 5x = -23+38 => 5x = 15 => x=3
Then 4y = 2*3-38 => y = -8
So the solution is (3,-8)
