The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y = -1/3(x) + 2.

The slope of the line is -1/3 and the y-intercept is 2

From the question, we are to determine the slope and the intercept of the given equation.

The given equation is

x + 3y = 6

Rewrite the equation in the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line

Rewriting in slope-intercept form

x + 3y = 6

3y = -x + 6

y = -1/3(x) + 2

Compare with the general form of the slope-intercept form of a line

y = mx + b

where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept

By comparing

m = -1/3

b = 2

Therefore,

Slope, m = -1/3

y-intercept, b = 2

The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 252 square feet. Its length is 10 feet longer than twice its width. Find the length

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: Length = 28 feet and width = 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = width of the wall.

Then, Length of the wall = 10+2x

Since , Area of rectangle = length x width

Then, as per given,

$252= (10+2x)x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 252=10x+2x^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2x^2+10x-252=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+5x-126=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+14x-9x-126=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x+14)-9(x+14)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x+14)(x-9)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=-14 \ or \ x= 9$

Since width cannot be negative , so x = 9

So width = 9 feet and length = 10+2(9)=10+18 = 28 feet

Hence, length is 28 feet and width is 9 feet of the wall of the barn.

she needs to find out the circumference

C=2x3.14x r

C=2x 3.14x6=37.68

180/37.68=4.77

she can make just 4 invitations
