Perimeter = 2l + 2w

Divide 184 by 4

184/4 = 46

Subtract by 6

46 - 6 = 40

Add by 6

46 + 6 = 52

The length is 52, and the width is 40.

We can verify by plugging these values into the original equation.

52*2 + 40*2 = 184

Write the standard form equation of the line through the given points. through (0.-4) and (-3,-2)
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The standard form of equation of the line through the given points. through (0.-4) and (-3,-2) is \frac{2}{3}x+y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of equation is Ax+By=C

Finding slope

Using the given points (0,-4) and (-3,-2) we can find slope using formula:Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Slope=\frac{-2-(-4)}{-3-(0)}\\Slope=\frac{-2+4}{-3}  \\Slope=-\frac{2}{3}

Finding y-intercept

Using point (0,4) and Slope=-2/3 we can find y-intercept

y=mx+b\\-4=-\frac{2}{3}(0)+b\\-4=0+b\\b=-4

The slope intercept form of the line through the given points. through (0.-4) and (-3,-2) having slope =-2/3 and b=-4 will be:

y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x-4

Now, standard form of equation will be: \frac{2}{3}x+y=-4

So, The standard form of equation of the line through the given points. through (0.-4) and (-3,-2) is \frac{2}{3}x+y=-4

A bird leaves its nest and travels 18 miles per hour downwind for 2 hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour
Darya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the distance travelled downwind by the bird from its nest.

Distance = speed × time

A bird leaves its nest and travels 18 miles per hour downwind for 2 hours. Distance covered in travelling downwind is

2 × 18 = 36 miles

On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 5 miles left after 3 hours. It means that the speed at which the bird travelled is 18 - 3 = 15 mph. Also, the distance covered in 3 hours is 36 - 5 = 31 miles. Therefore,

a) distance of the entire trip is

36 + 36 = 72 miles

b) time spent in travelling downwind from its nest is 2 hours

Time for the return part is

3 hours + 5/15 = 3 + 1/3 × 60 minutes

= 3 hours 20 minutes

Total time for the trip is

2 hours + 3 hours 20 minutes

= 5 hours 20 minutes 0 seconds
