The length of a rectangle is 6 yd longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 44 yd , find its area.

1 answer:

3 0

Let's call the length L and the width w.

perimeter = 2L + 2w
44 = 2L + 2w

the length is 6 yards longer than the width. so L = w + 6.

plug this into the equation. 44 = 2(w+6) + 2w
44 = 2w + 12 + 2w
44 = 4w + 12
32 = 4w
w = 8
L = w + 6
L = 8 + 6
L = 14

area = Lw
area = 8(14)
area = 112 yd²

Aleks [24]

To solve the problem divide the number of elephants by 8 (48 divided by 8 is 6), and then multiply the solution by 5 (6 times 5 is 30).

You can put it in a table like this:

5 10 15 20 25 30 - Monkeys

8 16 24 32 40 48 - Elephants

Answer:

y = -4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4y = 24

-4y = -x + 24

y = 1/4x - 6

m⊥ = -4

y = -4x + b

7 = -4 ( -2 ) + b

7 = 8 + b

b = -1

y = -4x - 1
