I know there must be an equation to do this, but there is a simpler way.
Just factor number 72 into two numbers which, when multiplied, equal 72. Two of such numbers are 9 and 8, and you can see that the difference between those two numbers is just 1. So that is the answer to your question - the length of the patio is 9 feet, whereas the width is 8 feet.
Answer:
There is no solution because the graphs do not intersect
Step-by-step explanation:
Both of theses equations do intersect with one another when graphed. In conclusion, there is no solution.
For the first marble would be: 2/11
For the second: 3/11
Answer:
Value 1: -2
Value 2: 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To make y negative, -2 ≤ x ≤ ∞
In other words, x must be equal to or greater than -2 for the value of y to be negative.
Value 1: -2
y = -2(-2) - 5
y = 4 - 5
y = -1
Value 2: 10
y = -2(10) - 5
y = -20 - 5
y = -25
