8x + By + 92 = 0

(-4; 12) ⇒ x = -4; y = 12

subtitute

8 · (-4) + 12B + 92 = 0
-32 + 12B + 92 = 0
12B + 60 = 0 |subtract 60 from both sides
12B = -60 |divide both sides by 12

B = -5

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

I'll setup the problem, then you can do the calculations

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2width(W) + 2length (L)

Area = LW

L = 2.5 + 2W

LW = 62.5

substitute L in equation for area

$2.5W + {2W}^{2} = 62.5 \\ \\ {2W}^{2} + 2.5 - 62.5 \\ \\ use \: quadratic \: solution \\\frac{ - b ± \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac}}{2a}$

a = 2; b = 2.5; c = 62.5
