Length of side of new square is 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the length of the side of the old square be x. Then length of side of new square = x + 3 and Perimeter of new square = 40 + 2x

Perimeter of a square = 4 × side

⇒ 4(x + 3) = 40 + 2x

⇒ 4x + 12 = 40 + 2x

⇒ 2x = 28

⇒ x = 14 inches

  • Step 2: Find length of side of the new square

⇒ x + 3 = 17 inches

Convert from Standard Form to Slope Intercept Form<br> 3x + 2y = 6
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

y = -3/2x + 3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

Equality Properties

Standard Form: Ax + By = C

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

  • m - slope
  • b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Standard Form:   3x + 2y = 6

<u>Step 2: Find slope-intercept form</u>

  1. Subtract 3x on both sides:          2y = 6 - 3x
  2. Divide both sides by 2:                y = 3 - 3/2x
  3. Rewrite:                                         y = -3/2x + 3

And we have our final answer!

Math question below!!​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x - 5 = 0

x² - 5x + x - 5 = 0

x(x - 5) + (x -5) = 0

(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0

x - 5 = 0   ; x + 1 = 0

x = 5      ; x = -1

In the reaction 2HgO(s) --&gt; 2Hg(l) + O2(g) we measure the evolution of gas to determine the rate of reaction. At the beginnin
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

0.034 L/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of reaction is the volume change (ΔV) divided by the time(t) and divided by the coefficient of the compound in the reaction. The coefficient of O₂ is 1, so:

R = (0.36 - 0.02)/10

R = 0.034 L/min
