So we have lengths a and b and are given:
2a+2b = 66 => a+b = 33 => a= 33-b
a*b = 272
plug in one into the other:
(33-b)b = 272 => -b^2 +33b - 272 = 0
Can be factored as (b-16)(b-17) = 0, if you don't "see" this immediately, use the well known abc formula to find b.
So a=16 and b=17 or vice versa.
Answer:
The constant of proportionality is basically just the slope, so the answer is 1/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Count how many Y units it goes up to get the the black point from (0,0) (the origin). You go up 1 unit to go 6 units to the right meaning the slope is 1/6.
That is the rise over run technique and there are many others, such as point slope form, and y2-y1 over x2-x1.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-7=-5x-1
x-(-5x)-7=-1
x+5x-7=-1
6x-7=-1
6x=-1+7
6x=6
x=6/6
x=1
It is the first option i think
