Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking two points on the graph (I took (0,9) and (6,7)
Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(7-9)/(6-0)=-2/6
=-1/3
Answer:
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Let 'x' be the width
Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width
2x-8 = length
The area of rectangle = length X width
Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet
x(2x-8) = 280
2(x)(x-4) =280
x(x-4) =140
x^2 -4x -140=0
x^2-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x+10)(x-14) =0
x = -10 and x = 14
we can choose only x =14
The width of the rectangle 14
The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Perimeter of the rectangle = 200cm
Breadth of the rectangle = 10 cm
Therefore, by the problem
=> 2(l+b) = 200cm
=> 2(l + 10) = 200cm

=> l + 10 = 100
=> l = 100 - 10
=> l = 90
<u>Hence, required length othe rectangle is 90 cm (Ans)</u>
Answer:
The first submarine needs to travel at a rate of [-180 – (-1,320)] ÷ 60 = 19 feet per minute.
The second submarine needs to travel at a rate of [-180 – (-1,440)] ÷ 60 = 21 feet per minute.
21 – 19 = 2, so the second submarine must travel 2 feet per minute faster than the first sub.
