The length of a rectangle is 6 inches longer than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is eight times the width. What is the width of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1
L = w+6
Perimeter = L + W
Substitute eqn 1 into 2
Perimeter = 2W + 6
Perimeter also = 8w
8w = 2W + 6
6w = 6
W = 1
Answer 2

Answer:

The width is 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's identify our variables.

L=Length

W=Width

P=Perimeter

P=2W+2L

We know that L=W+6

We can substitute L for W+6, and we can substitute P for 8W, which gives us the equation:

8W=2W+2(w+6)

If you go through all the steps to isolate the variable W, you'll end up with W=3

Answers

Answer:

Table C, Table D, Table E

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for tables

Given

[tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Required

Which of the tables is more expensive than the given function

To answer this question, we simply determine the equation of each table and then compare the equation with [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table A:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (1,2.75)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (4,11)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{11 - 2.75}{4 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{8.25}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2.75[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 2.75 = 2.75(b-1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 2.75 = 2.75b-2.75[/tex]

[tex]p = 2.75b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]2.75 < 3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is less expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table B:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (1.5,3.75)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (6,15)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{15 - 3.75}{6 - 1.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{11.25}{4.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2.5[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 3.75 = 2.5(b-1.5)[/tex]

[tex]p - 3.75 = 2.5b- 3.75[/tex]

[tex]p = 2.5b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]2.5 < 3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is also less expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table C:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (2,7)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (4,14)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{14 - 7}{4 - 2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{7}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 3.5[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 7 = 3.5(b - 2)[/tex]

[tex]p - 7 = 3.5b - 7[/tex]

[tex]p = 3.5b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]3.5 > 3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is more expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table D:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (2.5,10)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (5,20)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{20 - 10}{5 - 2.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{10}{2.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = 4[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 10 = 4(b - 2.5)[/tex]

[tex]p - 10 = 4b - 10[/tex]

[tex]p = 4b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]4 > 3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is more expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table E:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (6, 22.5)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (12,45)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{45 - 22.5}{12 - 6}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{22.5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]m = 3.75[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p - 22.5 = 3.75(b - 6)[/tex]

[tex]p - 22.5 = 3.75b - 22.5[/tex]

[tex]p = 3.75b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]3.75>3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is more expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

Table F:

Consider two corresponding points in the table, we have:

[tex](b_1,p_1) = (7, 21)[/tex]

[tex](b_2,p_2) = (14,42)[/tex]

Determine the slope

[tex]m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{b_2 - b_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{42 - 21}{14 - 7}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{21}{7}[/tex]

[tex]m = 3[/tex]

The equation is determined as follows:

[tex]p - p_1 = m(b-b_1)[/tex]

[tex]p -21 =3(b -7)[/tex]

[tex]p -21 =3b -21[/tex]

[tex]p = 3b[/tex]

Comparing this equation to [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex], we have that:

[tex]3 < 3.25[/tex]

Hence:

This equation is less expensive than [tex]p = 3.25b[/tex]

How do you know if it is inequality or not w/ fraction?

An equation or an inequality that contains at least one variable is called an open sentence. When you substitute a number for the variable in an open sentence, the resulting statement is either true or false. If the statement is true, the number is a solution to the equation or inequality.

To solve an inequality using the following steps:

1) Eliminate fractions by multiplying all terms by the least common denominator of all fractions.

2) Simplify by combining like terms on each side of the inequality.

3) Add or subtract quantities to obtain the unknown on one side and the numbers on the other.

Solve 12-5x-4kx=y for x

Answer:

x  = - y-12/5+4k

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 12-5x-4kx=y for x

12-5x-4kx  =  y for x

substract 12 from both side

   -5x-4kx  =  y-12

Factor of -5x-4kx = -x(5+4k)

   -x(5+4k) =  y-12

Solve for x

             -x =  y-12/(5+4k)

What are the values of x and y if this equation is true?

22(x + yi) + (28 + 4i) 72 – 62i

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

22(x + yi) + (28 + 4i) = 72 - 62i

By solving this equation further,

22x + 22yi + 28 + 4i = 72 - 62i

(22x + 28) + (22y + 4)i = 72 - 62i

Now both the sides of the equation is in the form of complex number,

By comparing real and imaginary parts given on both the sides,

22x + 28 = 72

22x = 72 - 28

22x = 44

x = 2

22y + 4 = -62

22y = -62 - 4

22y = -66

y = -3

Therefore, x = 2 and y = -3 are the values for which the given equation is true.
