Area is a derived equation from the lengths of the side. To determine the ratio of the perimeters of the given figure, we have to get the square root of the given ratio of the areas. This gives us the new ratio of,
                             ratio of perimeter = 4:5
If we are to let x be the perimeter of the second polygon, we use the equation,
                              20/x = 4/5
The value of x from the equation is 25 cm.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

See answers to parts a and b below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Value: y=20+.20x

Best Rent y=30+.10x

B. 20+.20x=30+.10x make equations equal each other by subbing y values.

.10x=10 simplify equation

x=100

check answers by subbing 100 for x in each equation.

y=20+.20(100)

y=20+20

y=40

y=30+.10(100)

y=30+10

y=40

Both equations equal 40, so 100 is the correct number of miles for when Value equals Best Rent.

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (­-8, ­-3) and (2, 3)
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 3)

m = \frac{3+3}{2+8} = \frac{6}{10} = \frac{3}{5} → c

Hello,

"T<span>he product of 8 and a number increased by 4" may be understood by 2 ways:
1) it is the number which is increased
2) it is the product which is increased.

1) 8*(y+4) =8y+32

2) (8y)+4=8y+4
