Answer:

width = 6

length = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2L + 2W

L = W - 2

plug in perimeter:

20 = 2L + 2W

you know the length is 2 less than the width

plug in (w - 2) for L:

20 = 2(w - 2) + 2w

solve for w:

20 = 2w - 4 + 2w

20 = 4w - 4

4w = 24

w = 6

now plug in 6 for w in either equation, whichever is easier to solve:

L = 6 - 2

L = 4

width = 6

length = 4

U is the midpoint of TV. If TU = 6x and TV = 11x + 8, what is TV?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

U is the midpoint of TV, so mTU is half of mTV or mTV = 2 * mTU, so

mTV = 2 * mTU

11x + 8 = 2 (6x)

11x + 8 = 12x

8 = x

mTV = 11x + 8 = 11(8) + 8 = 88 + 8 = 96

Is the Y value of the vertex of 4x squared plus 8X minus 8. help meee​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

y = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

You first calculate the x coordinate using the equation x = \frac{-b}{2a}, which in this case is \frac{-8}{8} = -1.

Then plug that x value into the equation to get the y coordinate:

4(-1)²+8(-1)-8 = -12
