Part A:

Let the width of the rectangle be = x inches

As given, the length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width so let the length of the rectangle be = x+3 inches

Perimeter is given as = 54 inches

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

Equation becomes:

2(x+3+x)=54

2(2x+3)=54

Part B:

Solving the equation we get

4x+6=54

4x=54-6

4x=48

x=12

Hence, the width of the rectangle is 12 inches

Length = x+3 = 12+3 = 15 inches

Hence, length of the rectangle is 15 inches.

There is a line that includes the point(10, 5)and has a slope of 1 What
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

y = x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point, (10, 5), and the slope, m = 1:

Substitute these values into the <u>slope-intercept form</u> to solve for the y-intercept, <em>b</em>:

y = mx + b

5 = 1(10) + b

5 = 10 + b

Subtract 10 from both sides to isolate b:

5 - 10 = 10 - 10 + b

-5 = b

The y-intercept of the line is: b = -5. This represents the y-coordinate of the y-intercept, (0, -5), which represents the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis. Along the y-axis, the value of x = 0. Hence, the y-intercept is (0, -5).  

Therefore, given the slope, m = 1, and the y-intercept, b = -5:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:  y = x - 5.

Shishir bought 4000 orange at 70 paisa each. But 400 of them were rotten. He sold 2000 oranges at 90 paisa each.If he plans to m
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

He needs to sell the rest of the oranges at 75 paisa each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given information that, Shishir bought 4000 orange at 70 paisa each.

Note: 1 rupees = 100 paisa

Thus, 70 paisa = 70/100 rupees = 0.70 rupees

Therefore, the cost price of 4000 oranges is:

4000×0.70 rupees = 2800 rupees

The selling price of 2000 oranges is:

2000×0.90 rupees = 1800 rupees

The number of oranges now Shishir have:

4000 - 2000 - 400 = 1600

He wants to make a profit of RS 200. Thus the selling price of 4000 oranges should be:

2800 rupees + 200 rupees = 3000 rupees

He earned 1800 rupees by selling 2000 oranges at 90 paisa. So, the remaining amount that he needs to make with 1600 oranges is:

3000 rupees - 1800 rupees = 1200 rupees

Therefore, the cost of one orange is:

1600 oranges = 1200 rupees

1 orange = 1200/1600 rupees

1 orange = 0.75 rupees

Hence, he needs to sell the rest of the oranges at 75 paisa each.

Daniel had a 22-foot-long rope that he cut into eight equal pieces. Which equation can be used to determine the length, r, of ea
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

r-----> the length of each piece

we know that

To find the length of each piece, divide the total length of the rope (22 ft) by the number of pieces (8 pieces)

so

8r=22 -----> equation that represent the situation

r=\frac{22}{8}\ feet -----> the length of each piece
