<span>Given that x represents the width of the rectangle and that the length of the rectangle is three times longer than the width. Then the length is 3x. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by 2(length + width) = 2(3x + x) = 2(4x) = 8x. The perimeter of the rectangle is 16 feet. Therefore, the required equation is 8x = 16. </span>
3x-13=2
move -13 to the other side
sign changes from -13 to +13
3x-13+13=2+13
3x=2+13
3x=15
divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself
3x/3=15/3
cross out 3 and 3, divide by 3 and then becomes 1*1*x=x
x=15/3
x=5
answer:
x=5
To rotate clockwise 90 degrees from a point (x, y) the image will be (y, -x)
In this case given the point (-1, 1), the image will be (1, -(-1)) or (1, 1)
