Here you're being asked to find the "perimeter" of the space, even tho' the problem doesn't specifically ask for it.
The formula for P is P = 2W + 2L.
Here the width, W, is 3 1/2 yds, and the length, L, is 4 2/3 yds. Subbing these two values into the formula for P (above) results in:
P = 2(3 1/2 yds) + 2(4 2/3 yds)
= 7 yds + 9 1/3 yds = 16 1/3 yds, total.
The heck, what math are you in?
A) x + y = 17
B) x - y = 27
Adding both equations:2x = 44
x = 22
y = -5
The equation in point slope form is given as y+3 = -5/8(x-4)
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
The formula for calculating the equation of a line in point-slope form is expressed as:
y-y1= m(x-x1)
Given the coordinate point
Slope = 2-(-3)/-2-4
Slope = 5/-8
Determine the equation
y-(-3) =-5/8(x-4)
y+3 = -5/8(x-4)
Hence the equation in point slope form is given as y+3 = -5/8(x-4)
