Answer:

1. 14 cm

2. 20.4 cm

3. 24 - w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the last question, as it'll make answering the previous two a lot easier. In the 3rd question, we are asked to create a formula to find the length of a given rectangle, using its given perimeter of 48 centimeters and width of w centimeters.

Therefore, let the length of the rectangle be l, we can construct the following equation:

2l + 2w = 48\\\to2l = 48 - 2w\\\to l = \frac{48 - 2w}2\\\to l = 24 - w


Now we have a formula that defines our length, if given the width of the rectangle. The only thing from here on out is to substitute the given widths to the formula we just found.

1. w = 10 , therefore, l = 24 - 10 = 14.

2. w = 3.6 , therefore, l = 24 - 3.6 = 20.4.

Patrice goes to fishers candy shop with the price of gummy candies modeled by the equation y=5/2x where x is the amount of gummy
icang [17]

Answer:

You need to put the question, but I'll try to help as much as I can without the question. y=5/2x, if you put the amount of gummy candy in lbs in the x's place, and you multiply the amount by 5/2, you will get the price.

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is3x−4y=8?
xxTIMURxx [149]

The slope of the parallel line is 3/4

<h3>How to determine the slope?</h3>

The equation is given as:

3x - 4y = 8

Rewrite as:

4y = 3x - 8

Divide through by 4

y = 3x/4 -  2

A linear equation is represented as:

y = mx + b

Where m represents the slope

By comparison:

m = 3/4

Parallel lines have equal slope

Hence, the slope of the parallel line is 3/4
