Hey there! :)

Answer:

Length = 24 meters.

Width = 8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that to find the area of a rectangle, the formula is as shown:

A = l × w

In this case, the length is 3 times the length of the width, or 3 : 1.

Let w = width, and

3w = length.

Find the value of w by plugging in these values into the equation:

192 = 3w · w

192 = 3w²

Divide both sides by 3:

64 = w²

Square root both sides:

w = 8 meters. This is the width.

The length is equivalent to 3w, so:

3(8) = 24 meters.

If the sum of three consecutive integers is 36, what is the smallest of these integers?
DedPeter [7]
Let the three consecutive equals:
x, x+1, x+2

sum:
x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 36
3x + 3 = 36
x+1 = 36/3
x+1 = 12
x=12-1
x=11

Evaluate -1-3-(-9)+(-5)
babunello [35]

To evaluate this expression, we need to remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number, and that adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive number. Using this knowledge, let's begin to simplify the expression below:

-1 - 3 - (-9) + (-5)

Because addition of a negative number is the same as subtraction of a positive number, we can change + (-5) to -5, as shown below:

-1 - 3 - (-9) - 5

Next, because we know that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number, we can change - (-9) to + 9, as shown below:

-1 - 3 + 9 - 5

Now, we can subtract the first two terms and begin to evaluate our expression:

-4 + 9 - 5

Next, we can add the first two numbers of the expression:

5 - 5

Now, we can subtract our last two numbers, which gives us our answer:

0

Therefore, your answer is 0.

Hope this helps!

Paul graphs the equation y = 2x where does the graph intersect the y axis
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

(0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 2x is a <u>proportional</u> relationship because it follows the form y = kx, where k = constant of proportionality. Proportional relationships intersect the y-axis at (0,0), thus having a y-intercept of 0, but we usually don't write the 0.

Given the information above, y = 2x intersects the y-axis at (0,0), the origin.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
