The answer is A!!! Hope that helped :)
Answer:
- length: 30 ft
- width: 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The description of the garden fits that of 3 squares arranged side-by-side. The area of each of those would be 100 ft², so their side length would be ...
s = √A= √(100 ft²) = 10 ft
This dimension is the width of the garden, whose length is 3 times this amount.
The length and width of the garden are 30 ft and 10 ft, respectively.
Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.
2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3
now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
-42 -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3
now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6
solution is (6,3)
it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)
so yes, ur solution is (6,3)
Answer:
<h3>
44</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
z - some integer
2z - first given even integer (the smaller one)
2z+2 - even integer consecutive to 2z (the larger one)
2(2z) - twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 - the number 40 less than twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 = 2z + 2
4z - 40 = 2z + 2
2z = 42
2z+2 = 42+2 = 44
check:
2(2z)-40 = 2(42)-40 = 84-40 = 44
