P=100
L=16+w
W=w
so we know that Perimeter is all the sides added so 2l+2w
so 100=(2(16+w))+(2(w))
100=32+2w+2w
100=32+4w
68=4w
w=17
so L=16+w therefore L=16+17 L=33
so L=33 and W=17

Please help me !!!!!
kupik [55]

Whenever you want to write the equation of a parallel line through some point (h, k), you can ...

  • remove any added constant in the original given equation
  • replace x with (x-h)
  • replace y with (y-k)
  • rearrange the resulting equation to the form required by the problem.

Using this formula here, we get

... 2(y +5) = 3(x -2)

Your answer form requires you solve this for y.

... 2y + 10 = 3x -6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

... 2y = 3x -16 . . . . . . . . subtract the constant on the left (10)

... y = (3/2)x -8 . . . . . . divide by 2

Which of the following points is a vertex for the image produced by a dilation about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

A (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trapezoid has vertices:

(0,6), (7,12), (7,9) and (0,12).

We want to choose from the given options, a point that is a vertex for the image produced by a dilation about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2.

Note that the mapping for such a dilation is:

(x,y)\to( \frac{1}{2} x, \frac{1}{2} y)

This implies that:

(0,6)\to(0,3)

(7,12)\to(3.5,6)

(7,9)\to(3.5,4.5)

(0,12)\to(0,6)

Therefore correct choice is (0,3)

How do you use electromagnetic spectrums to learn more about stars and planets?
klemol [59]

Answer: Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to collect and focus waves from the electromagnetic spectrum, including visible light, allowing us to look at celestial objects. By studying the electromagnetic waves given off by objects such as stars, galaxies, and black holes, astronomers can better understand the universe.
