The length of a rectangle is 6 centimeters and its area is (6x + 18)square centimeters. Write an expression for the width.

1 answer:

5 0

Area=legnth times width
legnth=6
area=6x+18
subsitute
6x+18=6 times width

undistribute 6 from each term on left side
6(x+3)=6 times width
divide both sides by 6
x+3=width

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point A to point B. Point A is at (2, negative 3) and point B is at (negative 4, 9).

Answer: (0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ are two point son a coordinate plane and (x,y) dividing it in a ratio of m: n.

Then , the coordinates of (x,y) is given by :-

$x=\dfrac{nx_1+mx_2}{m+n}$

$y=\dfrac{ny_1+my_2}{m+n}$

Given : On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point A to point B. Point A is at (2, - 3) and point B is at (- 4, 9).

Then , the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from A to B into a ratio of 1:2 :

$x=\dfrac{2(2)+1(-4)}{1+2}=0$

$y=\dfrac{2(-3)+1(9)}{1+2=1}$

Hence, the x- and y- coordinates of point E = (0,1)
