Answer:

Area = 32feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangule = 2(length+width)

Then:

g = 2w               Eq. 1

2(g+w) = 24       Eq. 2

g = length

w = width

From Eq. 2:

(2*g + 2*w) = 24

2g + 2w = 24      

2w = 24 - 2g            Eq. 3

Matching Eq. 1  and Eq. 3

g = 24 - 2g

g + 2g = 24

3g = 24

g = 24/3

g = 8 feet

From Eq. 1

g = 2w

8 = 2w

8/2 = w

w = 4 feet

Check:

From Eq. 2

2(g+w) = 24

2(8+4) = 24

2*12 = 24

Answer:

Area of a rexctangle = length * width

Then:

Area = 8feet * 4feet

Area = 32feet²

What equation best models this data? (Use y to represent the population in millions, and t to represent the year, assuming that
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

y = 2.31x + 309.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you are checking for a best fitting equation you want to check if it has a constant slope.  If it does then the relation is linear and super easy.

So, since the t values are increasing by the same amount you want to see if the y values are  too.  And they are, each population entry is increasing by 2.31, this is the slope.  

Also, keep in mind you can caluclate slope with the equation \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}  here x is replaced by t though.

Now, since we know it's linear and we know the slope we can find the equation with the formula  y - y1 = m(x - x1) where again, x is replaced by t and m is the slope 2.31

I am just going to use the first point.  so x1 = t1 = 0

y - 309.35 = 2.31(x-0)

y = 2.31x + 309.35

Let me know if there was something you didn't understand.
