Well there's two ways to approach this:
1.) Finding the width and going from there
2.) Finding the scale factor

I would recommend using the scale factor technique. You see how the length is reduced by a factor of 4? Well since the perimeter's formula involves adding length times width, you can just multiply the perimeter by 1/4 since the length went from 44 to 11(Just a rule, take it by heart). That means that the perimeter is \frac{156}{4} = 39.

The area is multiplied, not added, so you have to <em>square</em> the scale factor. This means multiply the area by 1/16 (Another rule, take it by heart). This means that the area is [tex]\frac{1496}{16} = between 94 and 95

5x-7=2x+8 solve for x
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 5x + -7 = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. -7 + 5x + -2x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x -7 + 3x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 -7 + 3x = 8 + 0 -7 + 3x = 8 Add '7' to each side of the equation. -7 + 7 + 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0 0 + 3x = 8 + 7 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: 8 + 7 = 15 3x = 15 Divide each side by '3'. x = 5 Simplifying x = 5

Write an equation in slope-intercept form from the points (0, 3) and (-4,-1)
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

y = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is represented by the formula y = mx + b. We can write an equation in point-slope form first, then convert it to that form.

1) First, find the slope of the line. Use the slope formula  m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} and substitute the x and y values of the given points into it. Then, simplify to find the slope, or m:

m = \frac{(-1)-(3)}{(-4)-(0)} \\m = \frac{-1-3}{-4-0} \\m = \frac{-4}{-4} \\m = 1

Thus, the slope of the line must be 1.

2) Now, since we know a point the line intersects and its slope, use the point-slope formula y-y_1=m(x-x_1) and substitute values for m, x_1, and y_1. From there, we can convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

Since m represents the slope, substitute 1 in its place. Since x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of a point the line intersects, choose any one of the given points (either one is fine) and substitute its x and y values into the equation, too. (I chose (0,3).) Finally, isolate y to find the answer:

y-3=1(x-0)\\y-3 = x\\y = x + 3
