Line A
slope = (-1 - 5)/(3+1) = -6/4 = -3/2
y = mx + b
5 = -3/2(-1) + b
b = 5 - 3/2
b = 7/2
equation of line A: y  = -3/2x + 7/2

Line B
slope = (-1 - 2)/(6-7) = -3/-1 = 3
y = mx + b
2 = 3(7) + b
b = 2- 21
b = - 19
equation of line B: y  = 3x -19

line A intersect line B when -3/2x + 7/2 =  3x -19
so
-3/2x + 7/2 =  3x -19
3x + 3/2x = 19 + 7/2
9/2x = 45/2
     x = (45/2) * (2/9)
     x = 5

     y  = 3x - 19 = 3(5) -19 = 15 -19 = -4

    (5 , -4)

answer
line A intersect line B at (5, -4)

A rectangle hasan area of 100 square yards and a perimeter of 58 yds. What is the length of the longer side of the rectangle?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The longer side of the rectangle is 25 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle, A = 100 square yards

The perimeter of a rectangle, P = 58 yards

We formula for area and perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

A = lb

and

P = 2(l+b)

ATQ,

lb = 100 ...(1)

2(l+b) = 58

(l+b) = 29 ....(2)

We need to solve equation (1) and (2).

l = 4, b = 25

So, the longer side of the rectangle is 25 yards.

The width of a field is 3 miles less than the length. The square mileage of the plot is 18 miles squared. Find the dimensions.
kherson [118]
LW = A
L(L - 3) = 18
L^2 - 3L - 18 = 0
(L - 6) (L + 3) = 0
L could be 6 or -3 ( -3 cannot be a length of a side of a rectangle since it’s negative.)
So L = 6 and W= 3
