Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they lie on the same line, it means that they are collinear.

Since they are collinear, the value of the slope between each 2 point is the same. Hence, we can have points PQR with the slopes PQ, PR and QR being the same.

The general formula for finding the slope of a line with 2 end points is :

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

using the first two points,

m = (0 - 9)/-1 -2 = -9/-3 = 3

Now to get the value of n. We can use the second point and the point containing n.

This means:

3 = (21 - 0)/(n + 1)

3 = 21/n + 1

3n + 3 = 21

3n = 18

n = 6

LOL I like caps!!! and !'s

To question

If 5x3 is 5x^3 then...

5x^3 times 2 equals 10x^3 no 10x^6

So the end result will be 10x^3\\ + 9

How to simplify the expression (2^2)÷2^10
dimulka [17.4K]
Simplify means solve and to solve we first need to do 2 to the 2nd power which is two *  2 that equal 4 than do 2 to the 10th power that equal 1024 and than we can just do

4 divided by 1024 = 0.0390625

Here is a rectangle which has a width of x cm. x cm
miskamm [114]

Answer:

278.25 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width of the rectangle is x (cm), as the length is 8cm longer, so that the length of the rectangle is: x + 8 (cm).

In the attached image, we can see the length of each side. Total length of the sides are 90 cm.

=> (x + x + 8) + x + 8 + (x+8) + (x + x + 8) + x + 8 + (x +8) = 90

=> 8x + 48 = 90

=> 8x = 90 - 48 = 42

=> x =42/8 = 5.25 (cm)

=> The width of the rectangle is 5.25cm

=> The length of the rectangle is: 5.25 + 8 = 13.25 cm

=> The area of one rectangle is: Length x Width = 5.25 x 13.25 = 69.5625 cm2

As the 8-sided shape is made from 4 rectangles, so that:

Area of 8 sided shape = 4 x Area of the rectangle = 4 x 69.5625 = 278.25 cm2
