To find the original price, you could use a variable to represent the original price in this equation;
Let p represent the original price
.70 × p=11.20
to solve this, we'd isolate the variable (p)
p=11.20 ÷.70
p=16
The original price was $16
Answer:
Length:8 m
Width:3 m
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>
If the perimeter of a rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of a right triangle is 12 meters (the sides of the triangle are half the length of the rectangle, the width of the rectangle, and the hypotenuse is 5 meters). How do you solve for L and W, the dimensions of the rectangle.
step 1
<em>Perimeter of rectangle</em>
we know that
The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

we have

so

Simplify
-----> equation A
step 2
Perimeter of triangle
The perimeter of triangle is equal to


so

Multiply by 2 both sides

----> equation B
Solve the system of equations by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (8,3)
see the attached figure
therefore
The dimensions of the rectangle are
Length:8 m
Width:3 m
Answer:
4x2 - 3xy - 9y2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y+4=6(x+7)
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-4)=6(x-(-7))
y+4=6(x+7)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6x +5 = 0
- 6x + 9 -9 +5 = 0
[
- 6x + 9] - 4 =0
-4 = 0
= 4
(x-3) =
or (x-3) = - 
(x-3) = 2 or (x-3) = -2
x = 5 or x = 1
therefore, sum of these solutions is 5+1 = 6
