Answer:

6 meters by 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step 1: Formula for perimeter of rectangle</em></u>

Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length) + 2 (width)

Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length + width)

<u><em>Step 2: Find the length and width in terms of x</em></u>

Width = x

Length = 1.5 times width

Length = 1.5x

<u><em>Step 3: Find x</em></u>

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

30 = 2 (1.5x + x)

30/2 = 2.5x

15/2.5 = x

x = 6

<u><em>Step 4: Find the length and width</em></u>

Width = x = 6 meters

Length = 1.5x = 1.5(6) = 9 meters

Therefore, the dimensions of the room are 6 meters and 9 meters.

NEED ANSWER ASAP!!!!

Answer:

y=4x+64

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form is y=mx+b, m being the slope and b being the y-intercept

The line intersects the y axis at (0, 64), so the y intercept is 64

To find the slope, find the change in y over the change in x

The y decreases by 16 every time the x increases by 4

SO the slope is 16/4, simplified to 4

y=4x+64

Please explain and tell me how to do it please

The answer is b) y = 3x + 3.

To find this, we first need to find the slope. The slope formula is listed below.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

In this equation, m is the slope, and (x1, y1) is the first point, where (x2, y2) is the second point. We'll use (2, 9) and (3, 12) for the points.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (12 - 9)/(3 - 2)

m = 3/1

m = 3

Now that we have the slope at 3. we can use slope intercept form and one point to solve for the y-intercept. We'll use (2, 9) as the point.

y = mx + b

9 = 3(2) + b

9 = 6 + b

3 = b

When we use the slope and intercept together to get the equation. y = 3x + 3
