Suppose the width of the path is x. 
the dimensions of the extended rectangle are (12+x+x), and (16+x+x) 
(12+2x)(16+2x)=285
4x²+56x+192=285
4x²+56x-93=0
Not easy to factor it, so use the quadratic formula to solve:
x={-56+√[(56²-4*4*(-93)]}/2*4 or x={-56-√[(56²-4*4*(-93)]}/2*4
x=1.5 (ignore the negative solution.)

Write an equation of a like that passes through the points (9,5) and (6,7)
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

y=-2/3x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(7-5)/(6-9)

m=2/-3

m=-2/3

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-5=-2/3(x-9)

y=-2/3x+18/3+5

y=-2/3x+6+5

y=-2/3x+11

Answer:

Ф=144

Ф =s/r ( Ф is the central angle,s is the arc length, r is the radius)

find r:

radius =circumference/2π=1/2π=0.16

Ф=(2/5) /(1/2π)=4π/5=144 degree (π=180)

Ф in degrees: 144 degrees
