L = 8w-32

w(8w-32) = 96

8x^2 - 32w - 96 = 0

w^2 - 4w - 12 = 0

(w  -  6)(w +  2  ) = 0

w+2=0 results in negative measures

w-6=0 ---> w = 6

width is 6

length is 8(6) - 32 = 48-32 = 16

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

y = -1/13x + 1 3/13

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 13x + 2

Perpendicular

y = -1/13x + b

Finding b:

1 = -1/13 * 3 + b

1 = -3/13 + b

1 3/13 = b

y = -1/13x + 1 3/13

Please let me know if I'm wrong :)

At a bake sale, as student spent $11.00 buying 3 brownies and 5 cookies. His friend spent $3.95 buying 1 brownie and 2 cookies.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

$2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "b" be the price of 1 brownie and "c" the price of 1 cookie.

At a bake sale, a student spent $11.00 buying 3 brownies and 5 cookies. Symbolicaly,

3 b + 5 c = 11.00   [1]

His friend spent $3.95 buying 1 brownie and 2 cookies. Symbolicaly,

1 b + 2 c = 3.95

b = 3.95 - 2c   [2]

If we replace [2] in [1], we get

3 (3.95 - 2c) + 5 c = 11.00

11.85 - 6c + 5c = 11.00

c = 0.85

If we replace c = 0.85 in [2], we get

b = 3.95 - 2 (0.85) = 2.25

anastassius [24]

Answer:

5 withdrawals

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $10.50 ends in $0.50, you know that she must have made at least one $2.50 transaction.

10.50 - 2.50 = 8

8/2 = 4 (she made four $2 transactions)

She made 4 $2 transactions and 1 $2.50 transaction.

4 + 1 = 5

She made 5 transactions total.
