Length is 95 yards.

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of four sides. The four sides are either its length or width.

A rectangle has four sides where its angles are all right angles and its opposite sides are congruent or of equal size.

Perimeter = 2length + 2width ==> P = 2L + 2W

354 = 2L + 2(82)
354 = 2L + 164
to get the length. we must transfer all like signs.
2L = 354 - 164
2L = 190
2L / 2 = 190 / 2
L = 95 yards.

Answer:

Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person is 22 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lifeguard sees a person in distress.The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Angle of depression is 34°.

To find: Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person.

Solution : If we draw a triangle then tan∅ = $\frac{height}{base}$

Here base is the horizontal distance.

Now we put the values in the formula.

tan 34° = $\frac{15}{base}$

Or Base = $\frac{15}{tan34}$

= $\frac{15}{0.675} = 22.22 feet$

So the answer is 22 feet.

identify an equation in the point-slope form for the line parallel to y=1/2 x -7 that passes through (-3,-2)

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

note :

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) when : x_1= -3 y_1= -2 m= 1/2(parallel means same slope)

an equation in the point-slope form is : y +2 = 1/2(x+3)

Find the degree of the polynomial<br><br> 7a3b2 – 2a4 + 4b – 15<br><br> Degree

vesna_86 [32]

When ur polynomial has more then one variable....and this one does...the degree is the highest term degree

7a^3b^2 ....this term has a degree of 5
2a^4...this term has a degree of 4
4b....this term has a degree of 1
15....this term has a degree of 0

so the highest degree term has a degree of 5....so that is the degree of this polynomial.

now if u just had 1 variable, the degree would be the highest exponent
