Answer:

Length = 11

Width = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the length is x and the width is x - 5 since it is 5 less than the length.

The equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2l

We will plug in the values and solve

2(x-5) + 2(x) = 34

2x - 10 + 2x = 34

4x - 10 = 34

4x = 44

x = 11

Since the length is simply x, we know that it is 11. We subtract 5 to find the width.

11 - 5 = 6.

The width is 6.

Write each polynomial in standard form. 6y5 – 4y8 – 2 + 4y3
Fed [463]

Answer:

The standard form is :

- 4 {y}^{8}  + 6 {y}^{5}  + 4 {y}^{3}  - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial in standard form will be in decreasing powers of the variable.

The given polynomial is

6 {y}^{5}  - 4 {y}^{8}  - 2 + 4 {y}^{3}

We rearrange the terms in descending powers of y.

We start with the term with the highest degree and end with the term with the least degree.

- 4 {y}^{8}  + 6 {y}^{5}  + 4 {y}^{3}  - 2

Write an equation passing through the point and parallel to the given line. (4,7);y=3x+4
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

y=3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal

The slope of the given line is m=3

so

The slope of the line parallel to the given line is also m=3

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=3

point\ (4,7)

substitute

y-7=3(x-4)

step 3

Convert to slope intercept form

isolate the variable y

y-7=3x-12\\y=3x-12+7\\y=3x-5
