First we find width or legnth,
then we determine which wire is shortest
a wire=264

legnth used for rectangle=x

legnth used for square=264-x=y

reactangle=2legnh+2width=2(l+w)
l=2w-4
subsitute
2(2w-4+w)=recangle perimiter=4w-8+2w=6w-8



square=y
legnth=width
legnth=rectangleleghtn+width (rectangle l+w=3w-4)
4legnth=perimiter=12w-16


recangle perimiter=6w-8
square perimiter=12w-16
x+y=264
(6w-8)+(12w-16)=legnth of wire toatl
18w-24=total widght=264
18w-24=264
add 24 to both sides
18w=288
divide both sides by 18
w=16
perimter of square=4(l+w)
l=2w-4
l=2(16)-4
l=28
perimiter of square 4(28+16)=4(44)=176
176=y
x+y=264
x+176=264
subtract 176 from both sides
x=88
rectangle=88
88<176

rectangle is shorter wire which is 88 cm in total legnth

88cm is answer

The number of boys varies directly as the number of girls and inversely as the number of teachers. When there are 24 boys and 16
lidiya [134]
SO from what I did was...

Since 24 x 3 = 72 , I did the same to 16. 

16 x 3 = 48 

But because instead of their being 3 teachers there is 1... What I did is just was to divide 48 / 2 which gave me the answer of 24... 

So what I think the answer is... 

There are 72 boys, 24 girls, and 1 teacher... 

Unless I am just dumb and it would be 48 girls, but I think I did it right. 

I hope I was able to help out.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-2, -3) and (4, -5)
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

x + 3y + 11 = 0  is the  required equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given points are A( -2,-3) and B(4,-5)

Now, slope of the equation = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}  = \frac{-5 -(-3))}{4-(-2)}   = \frac{-2}{6}   =-\frac{1}{3}

Hence, the slope of the equation is m = (-1/3)

Now, by POINT SLOPE FORMULA:

The equation of a line with slope m and point (x0, y0) is given as

(y - y0) = m (x -x0)

So, here the equation of line with (4, -5) is

y - (-5) = -\frac{1}{3}  (x - 4)  \implies  3( y +5) = -x + 4

or, 3y + 15 + x-4 = 0

or, x + 3y + 11 = 0

⇒ x + 3y + 11 = 0 is the  required equation.
