The sides of a rectangle have the ratio 7:2. its perimeter is 207cm. Find the area

X - unit of length
w,l - the sides of a rectangle

7 : 2 ⇒ 7x : 2x

Perimeter: P = 207cm
Perimeter: P = 2w + 2l

therefore: 2w + 2l = 207    |divide both sides by 2

w + l = 103.5 (cm)

w : l = 7 : 2 ⇒ w : l = 7x : 2x ⇒ w = 7x; l = 2x

subtitute

7x + 2x = 103.5
9x = 103.5    |divide both sides by 9
x = 11.5 (cm)

7x = 7 · 11.5cm = 80.5cm
2x = 2 · 11.5cm = 23cm

w = 80.5cm; l = 23cm

Area = wl

Area: A = 80.5cm · 23cm = 1851.5cm²

7. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line graphed below.​
Stels [109]

Answer:

The answer to your question is y = \frac{-1}{2} x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Get to points of the line

    A (-2, 0)

    B (0, -1)

2.- Find the slope of the line

Slope = m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Substitution

             m = \frac{-1 - 0}{0 + 2} = \frac{-1}{2}

3.- Find the equation of the line

              y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitution

              y - 0 = -1/2(x + 2)

Simplification

                   y = -1/2x - 1

A worker at a snack stand opened a new box of cups. On the first day, the worker used 30 cups from the box. On the second day, t
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

<em>630 cups</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

This problem is most easily solved backward, i.e., from the final data up to the beginning.

There was a new box of cups and the worker at a snack stand opened it. He first used 30 cups from the box and the second day he uses 15% of the remaining cups in the box, and we are told that represents 90 cups.

If 15% (0.15) equals 90 cups, then the number of cups before the second day was 90/0.15 = 600 cups.

On the first day, we used 30 cups, thus the original number of cups in the box was 600+30=630 cups

Which rigid motion does not preserve orientation
Neporo4naja [7]
I think that translation is the only one that DOES preserve orientation.
Rotation and reflection definitely don't, and I'm not sure about dilation.
