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

Did you mean the Pythagorean theorem? If so I believe that the answer would be that the Pythagorean theorem is used any time there is a right triangle.

Omar is born weighing 8 pounds, and 3 ounces. The doctor says he should gain 5 ounces each week for 4 weeks. How much should omo
Monica [59]

Let's convert 8 pounds and 3 ounces, into all ounces.

So we know one pound = 16 ounces.

1 lb = 16 oz.

Now since Omar is 8 pounds + 3 ounces, we multiply 16 by 8, and add on the 3:

16 * 8 = 128

128 + 3 = 131

So Omar weights 131 ounces when he was born.

Now Omar has to gain 5 ounces each week, for 4 weeks. This means in total, he'll have to gain 5*4=20 ounces in 4 weeks.

Add them together:

131 + 20 = 151 oz OR 9 7/16 lb.

Work out the equation of line B. Give your answer in the form y = mx + c, where m and care integers or fractions in their simple
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

y = -3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line crosses the y-axis at 1. This is called the y-intercept. This is the number you fill in for c in the form of the equation given.

You can pick any two points on the line to calculate the slope. But you can actually SEE the slope without having to calculate it when you have the graph to look at. See the line crossing the y-axis at 1. Look for another point (that has nice whole number coordinates) there is one DOWN3 and OVER1. If you notice, the next point is also DOWN3 and OVER1.

DOWN3 and OVER1 is the slope -3/1, which is equal to -3.

Fill in -3 in place of the m in the equation.

y = -3x + 1

Done!
