Answer
<em>length = width + 15</em>
<em>Area = length * width; area is 54 square feet.</em>
<em>Two equations are:</em>
<em>L = W + 15</em>
<em>L * W = 54</em>
<em>To solve, we substitute first equation into second equation:</em>
<em>(W + 15) * W = 54</em>
<em>w^2 + 15w = 54</em>
<em>w^2 + 15w - 54 = 0</em>
<em>(w+18)(w-3) = 0</em>
<em>w = -18 or 3</em>
<em>The width cannot be negative, so 3 is the width and since length is 15 more than width, length is 18:</em>
<em />
<em>Length = 18 feet</em>
<em>Width = 3 feet</em>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function is of the form

where a is the initial value and b is the growth/decay rate. Our initial value is 64. That's easy to plug in. It goes in for a. So the first choice is out. Considering b now...
If the rate is decreasing at .5% per week, this means it still retains a rate of
100% - .5% = 99.5%
which is .995 in decimal form.
b is a rate of decay when it is greater than 0 but less than 1; b is a growth rate when it is greater than 1. .995 is less than 1 so it is a rate of decay. The exponential function is, in terms of t,

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
j=k+4
k=3r
j=3r+4
j+k+r=46
3r+4+3r+r=46
7r+4=46
7r=42
r=6, since k=3r
k=18, since j=k+4
j=22
j,k,r=22,18,6
