Answer: Length = 12cm , width = 21cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x , then the width is x + 9, That is

Length = x

Width = x + 9

The formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

Perimeter = 2 ( Length + Width )

substituting the values , we have :

66 = 2 ( x + x + 9 )

66 = 2 ( 2x + 9 )

divide through by 2

66/2 = 2x + 9

33 = 2x + 9

subtract 9 from both sides

33 - 9 = 2x

24 = 2x

divide through by 2

therefore :

x = 12

This means that

Length = 12cm

Width = 12 + 9 = 21 cm

Alenkasestr [34]

The inequality that represents how much money Caroline needs to earn will be m>35.

In this case, Caroline needs an amount that's greater than $35, therefore, the amount must be greater than $35

From the options given, the correct inequality will be m>35. This means m is greater than $35.

graph the line that passes through the points (-8,9) and (4,-3) what are the x and y intercepts for this line someone help pleas
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

(0,1)- y intercept (1,0) x intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets write this equation in slope intercept form: y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y intercept

so

slope formula:

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

y2=-3

y1=9

x2=4

x1=-8

so

(-3-9)/(4--8)=-12/12=-1

slope=-1

hence

y=-1x+b

substitute "x" as 4 and "y" as -3

so

-3=-1(4)+b

-3=-4+b

1=b

so

y=-x+1

1=y intercept

and

0=-x+1

-1=-x

1=x

1=x intercept
