1. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, is:
P=2L+2W
P is the perimeter of the rectangle (P=320 feet).
L is the lenght of the rectangle.
W is the width of the rectangle.

2. The problem says that the length of the rectangle is three times the width, so you have:
</span>
L=3W
3. When you substitute L=3W and P=320, into P=2L+2W, you obtain:
P=2L+2W
320=2(3W)+2W
320=6W+2W
8W=320
W=320/8
W=40 feet
4. The barn forms one end of the rectangle. Therefore the linear feet of fence (x) is:
x=P-W
x=320 feet-40 feet
x=280 feet

How many linear feet of fence must he buy?

The answer is: 280 feet
Answer:
y = 2x
the formula for linear equations are y = mx+c,
where m is the gradient,
and c is the y-intercept
to find m (the gradient):
1. pick to points on the graph (eg. -2,-4 and 2,4)
2 substitute the values into the formula for gradient y2-y1/x2-x1.
m = y2-y1/x1-x2
= -4 -4/-2-2
= -8/-4
= 2
to find c (y-intercept):
- the y-intercept is where the graph cuts the y axis
- in this graph, the y-intercept is 0
hence,
c = 0
substitute m = 2 and c = 0 to y = mx+c,
y = 2x + 0
y = 2x
hence, the equation that best represents the relationship shown in the graph is y = 2x.
First, we know L and W are the same number. The in the end the Length is 6 more, therefore we add 6. The equations begins as so
2x+6=27
-6
2x=21
/2
x=10.5
+6
Therefore the Width =10.5 M
The Length = 16.5 M
The answer is D) 2
Since it is given that there have been 9 slices eaten, we can assume that whatever amount of slices were cut in total will have 9 reduced from the amount. With the fraction 2/11, we know 11-9=2, which fits perfectly into this description so 2 slices have not been eaten.
W=15 no
W= 21 no
W= 1 Yes
If im right the question is just asking which variable is less than 15.
so the only variable that is less than 15 is 1.
