Answer: 16x - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine values of L and W

We know that the perimeter can be found by the equation p = 2L + 2W where L is the length and W is the width

L = 3x-4

W = 5x-11

Plug in the values of L and W into the equation and solve

p = 2L + 2W

p = 2(3x - 4) + 2(5x - 11)

p = 6x - 8 + 10x - 22

p = 16x - 30

Answer:

(16x - 30) units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2[length + width]

= 2[3x-4 + 5x-11]

= 2[8x - 15]

= 16x - 30

The answer is:

y= -0.5x -2.5

you can also write it as:

y = -0.5x + (-2.5)

m = -0.5

b or "c" = -2.5

I hope this was helpful :)

Answer:

Josie takes 0.93 minutes to run 2 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Ratio:

Number of minutes: Number of miles = 20:43

Josie wants to run 2 miles. We have to find the number of minutes she need to run to maintain the ration.

Let x be the number of minutes Josie run.

This can be done in the following manner:

$\dfrac{20}{43} = \dfrac{x}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{20}{43}\times 2\\\\\Rightarrow x = 0.93$

Thus, Josie takes 0.93 minutes to run 2 miles.
