Answer: Area is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is 24

Let the length be x

Let the breadth be Y

Length is 5times the breadth

I.e

X=5y

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is

2(length + breadth)

= 2(x+y)

Substitute for x=5y

2(5y+y)=24

2(6y)=24

6y=24/2

6y=12

Y=12/6

Y=2

Breadth = 2

Since length =5y

Length=5(2)

Length = 10

Area of a rectangle = length × breadth

Area= 10×2

Area = 20

Area of the rectangle is 20

What are the slope and y intercept of the line 4y= -x - 32
Alona [7]
First you'll have to bring the equation in form y = mx + b.

4y = -x - 32
y = -1/4 x - 8

So the slope is -1/4 and y-intercept is -8

Hope this helps :)

A dress listed from $119 is discounted 25%. What is the sale price of the dress including a 7 1/2 state sales tax?
Daniel [21]
If it is discounted 25%, then u r actually paying 75%

0.75(119) = 89.25 (without tax)

sales tax = 7 1/2% = 7.5% = 0.075
89.25(1.075) = $ 95.94 <===
