Answer:

height=100feet

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle=p=500 feet

p=2a+2b equation 1

a=height

b=base

we have: b/a=3/2

so a=(2*b)/3

in equation 1 we have:

500=2*((2*b)/3)+2*b

so we have

500=(4*b)/3 + 2*b

500=(4b+6b)/3

500=(10b)/3

500*3=10b

b=(500*3)/10

b=150 feet =base

so

a=(2*150)/3=100 feet = height

What the slope between 2,0 and-1,6
icang [17]

Answer: The slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-First, you need the formula in order to find the slope:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

-Place the two points onto the equation:

m=\frac{6-0}{-1-2}

-Then, you solve:

m=\frac{6-0}{-1-2}

\frac{6-0}{-1-2}= \frac{6}{-3}=-2

Result:

m=-2

Okay, my prior answer got deleted for no work, apparently.
I'll re-post it though.

That word problem translates to:
8n -4=0 \\ +4 \\  \\ 8n=4 \\ /8 \\  \\ n=1/2

almond37 [142]

Answer:

You need to find the x and y intercepts so...

The x intercept is (18,0) since x=18

The y intercept is (0,12) since y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Cover the y when you are finding the y intercept

Cover the x when you are finding the x intercept

8x/8

144/8

=18

12y/12

144/112

=12
