Area of rectangles = width * length.
So x*12 = 12x = area of first rectangle
So 16*(x-2) = 16x -32 = area of second rectangle
The question states to make them equal, so:
first rectangle = second rectangle
12x = 16x -32
Solve for x
-4x = -32
4x = 32
x = 8
Answer:
(0, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the slope by drawing a triangle connecting two point (in a corner) on the graph:
rise 2 run 3 and it's in a negative direction so the slope is -2/3
a perpendicular slope will have the opposite reciprocal slope which would be 3/2
put the point (2,2) on the line and count down three and to the left two and up three and to the right two (to make the slope positive). Draw the line that will be perpendicular to the given line. It will pass through (0,-1)
This can also be solved mathematically if needed.

Answer:
y = 13
Explanation:
You want to add the like variables:
(3x - y) = -1
+(-3x +3y) = 27
The x's cancel out:
2y = 26
Divide by 2 on both sides to get the y by itself and solve for y
y = 13

Answer: 15 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The easy part is adding the whole numbers which is 14. Then you add the fractions but first you have to try to make them the same denominator.
1/2= 2/4=3/8
3/4=6/8
3/8=3/8
Then we add them.
3/8 + 6/8 +3/8
=12/8
= 1 4/8
= 1 1/2
Then add the whole number and the fractions which is now a mixed number.
First add the whole numbers again.
14+1=15
And the 15 with the 1/2.
15+1/2
And the final answer that you get will be 15 1/2.
Hope this helped! ;)
