2x + 2y = 20
2(6) + 2y = 20
12 + 2y = 20
2y = 8
y = 4
width = 4

Area = 6 × 4
= 24 cm

Perimeter minus the length is 14, so 14 x 6 would equal the area. so the area of the rectangle is 84

The value of y varies directly with x. When y=80, x=1/2. What is the value of y when x is 2 1/4?
spin [16.1K]
Using the formula y = kx 
80 = .5k 
k = 160
y = 160*2.25
y = 360

What you need to do is do the formula of Area=1/2×Height (Base B +Base A) Base B is bottom Base A is the top then you divide by 2 In this case 1/2 ×8/1 ×(12+15)=108

Which techniques can be used to evaluate the expression 12.75/<br><br> 1.5
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 12.75/1.5. The technique in solving the division expression is as shown

First we can write the decimals as fraction as shown;

12.75 = 1275/100

1.5 = 15/10

12.75/1.5 = (1275/100)÷(15/10)

12.75/1.5 = 1275/100×10/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/10 × 1/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/150

12.75/1.5 = 8.5

Hence the result of the division is 8.5

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-5) and is parallel
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

y=-5/4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the line 5x+4y=24 and we want to find the line parallel to it that passes through (8,-5)

Parallel lines have the same slopes

First, we need to find the slope of 5x+4y=24.

We'll do that by converting 5x+4y=24 from standard form (ax+by=c where a, b, and c are integers) to slope-intercept form (y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

subtract 5x from both sides

4y=-5x+24

divide by 4 on both sides

y=-5/4x+6

since -5/4 is in the place where m should be, it is the slope.

So the equation of the line parallel to it will also have -5/4 as the slope

Here's the equation so far in slope-intercept form:

y=-5/4x+b

we need to find b

because the equation will pass through (8,-5), we can use it to solve for b

substitute 8 as x and -5 as y

-5=-5/4(8)+b

multiply

-5=-10+b

add 10 to both sides

5=b

substitute 5 as b into the equation

<u>y=-5/4x+5</u>

That's the equation of the line parallel to 5x+4y=24.

Hope this helps!
