The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:

P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>

64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property

⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms

⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides

⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4

⇒ x = 12

Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width

<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14

<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18

The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through (-4,8) and (4,4)
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

y-4= -1/2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find the slope to write it in point slope

to do this you find change in Y over change in X

From -4 to 4 is postivite 8 and from 8 to 4 its -4

Now you do -4 divided by 8 and get -0.5 or -1/2 for slope now pick one of the points and put it in the formula y-y1=m(x-x1)
