The perimeter of a rectangle is 32 centimeters. the width is 77 centimeters. what is the area of the rectangle

2 answers:

5 0

As P = 2L + 2W
32 = 154 + 2W
So L = -61

However it is impossible for the length of a rectangle to be less than 0, i.e. negative. So this rectangle does not exist and hence has no area, length, width or perimeter.

First find length. p=2(l+w)
32=2l+154
32-154=2l
-122=2l divide both sides by 2
l=-61
area=(l x w)
A=-61 x 77=-4697 square cm

Passes through (3, 4) and (5, -4) how do I solve

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

y = - 4x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you require the equation of the line passing through the points.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 4)

m = $\frac{-4-4}{5-3}$ = $\frac{-8}{2}$ = - 4, thus

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (3, 4), then

4 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 12 = 16

y = - 4x + 16 ← equation of line

5<b-3. whats the answer????

9966 [12]

Answer:

5<b-3

Add 3 on both sides

8<b

The variable will always go on the left side of the equation. To flip the equation, you must also flip the less than sign to a greater than sign.

b>8

12 grapes cost 90 $how many can bought in 40$

likoan [24]

Let x = the amount of grapes that can be bought for 0.40.

Note: By 90 I assume you mean 90 cents. The same for 40.

12/x = 0.90/0.40

0.90x = 12(0.40)

0.90x = 4.80

x = 4.80 ÷ 0.90

x = 5.33333

We can round the decimal to the ones place to get 5 grapes.

One number added to three times another number is 24. Five times the first number added to three times to other number is 36. Fi

Marrrta [24]

The numbers are 3 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be y

Then according to given statement

One number added to three times another number is 24

x+3y=24 Eqn 1

Five times the first number added to three times to other number is 36

5x+3y=36 Eqn 2

Subtracting Equation 1 from equation 2

$5x+3y-(x+3y)=36-24\\5x+3y-x-3y=12\\4x=12$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{12}{4}\\x=3$

Putting x=3 in equation 1

$3+3y=24\\3y=24-3\\3y=21$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{21}{3}\\y=7$

Hence,

The numbers are 3 and 7
