So point-slope form is (y-y1) = m(x-x1). So first find m. m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) So for your problem m = (-4-2) / (1--8) = -6/9 = -2/3. Then plug the slope and a point into the point-slope equation so you can either get: y-2 = (-2/3)*(x+8) or y+4 = (-2/3)*(x-1). Both are valid.

Hope this helps!

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Option C is correct

76 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square(A) is given by:

$A =s^2$

where, s is the side of the square.

As per the statement:

A square ceiling has an area of 360 square feet.

⇒A = 360 square feet.

then;

$s^2 = 360$

⇒ $s = \sqrt{360} =18.973666$

Perimeter(P) of square is given by:

$P = 4s$

then;

$P = 4 \cdot 18.973666 = 75.894664 \approx 76 ft$

Therefore, 76 feet molding does he need.

The area of a rectangle is represented by the polynomial x^2+3x-6x-18. What are the length, width, and area of the rectangle if

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Length = 15

Width = 6

Area = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangle = ${x}^{2} + 3x - 6x - 18$

Lets factorise the polynomial

$= > x(x + 3) - 6(x + 3)$

$= > (x + 3)(x - 6)$

We know that Area = Length × Width

Let the length be (x + 3) & width be (x - 6)

Its given in the question that x = 12. So putting the value of x gives ,

Length = $x + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15$

Width = $x - 6 = 12 - 6 = 6$

Area = Length × Width = 15 × 6 = 90
