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

Dmitriy789 [7]
The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745

where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles

The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.

The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450

(X^3)^1/3 <br> What is the simplest form of this expression?
Norma-Jean [14]
The simplest form would be x

The rule for power to a power is 'keep the base and multiply the powers'.
3 * (1/3) = 1
So it would be x^1 or just x
