6 0

Answer:

y = -2/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em> of perpendicular line

<em>Simply take the negative reciprocal of the given line</em>

m = -2/3

y = -2/3x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

6 = -2/3(-12) + b

6 = 8 + b

b = -2

Step 3: Rewrite perpendicular equation

y = -2/3x - 2

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b where m is slope and b is y intercept.

The line crosses the y axis at y = 4

The slope is 4/3

So the answer is y = (4x/3) + 4

The area of a rectangle is 8w + 18 square feet. The length of the rectangle is 2 feet. Use factoring to write an expression to r
qwelly [4]

Answer:

4w + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length x width (or base x height, depending on how you look at it).

It is given to you that:

Area = 8w + 18

Length = 2

Let: width = x

Plug in the corresponding terms with the corresponding words:

8w + 18 = 2x

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(8w + 18)/2 = (2x)/2

x = (8w + 18)/2

w = (8w)/2 + (18)/2

w = 4w + 9

4w + 9 is the expression that represents the width of the rectangle.
