Answer:

135m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(l + w)

l = w + 6

Substituting for l, gives;

2(w+6+w)

48 = 2w + 12 +2w

48 = 4w + 12

48 - 12 = 4w

36 = 4w

w = 9

Since w = 9, then l = w +6

l = 9 + 6

l = 15

Area = l * w

Area = 15 * 9

Area = 135m²

The y-intercept of the line whose equation is 7x - 4y = 8 is what

Anni [7]

The y intercept is when x is 0. So, we have to plug in 0 for x. You can do this in many different ways as well.
7(0)-4y=8
-4y=8
Divide both sides by -4.
Y=-2
So, the Y intercept is -2 (0,-2).

What is really answer please help

Reika [66]

Answer:

4±√5

EXPLAINED ANSWER:

Since the variable is a binomial and it is squared, we apply square root on both side, and apply the ± sign on the right side (since the solution of a square root can be both positive and negative), and later pass the 4 positive to the other side.

√25 can be (5)(5) or (-5)(-5)

A triangle has one side that measures x, and the other two sides each measure 4 inches less than x. The perimeter is 19 inches.

zalisa [80]

Perimeter of a triangle = all 3 sides added together

x + (x - 4) + (x - 4) = 19
3x - 8 = 19
3x = 19 + 8
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 9 <==
