Answer: length = 305 feet

Width = 126 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangular field.

Let W represent the width of the rectangular field.

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

The perimeter of a garden is 88 feet. This means that

2(L + W) = 862

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

L + W = 431 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The length is 179 feet more than the width. This means that

L = W + 179

Substituting L = W + 179 into equation 1, it becomes

W + 179 + W = 431

2W + 179 = 431

2W = 431 - 179

2W = 252

W = 252/2

W = 126

L = W + 179 = 126 + 179

L = 305

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with side lengths 15.8m, 24.5m, and 4.2m?
vampirchik [111]

Answer: A = 1,625.82 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

   The volume of a rectangular prism can be found with;

             A = L * W * H

             A = L * W * H

             A = (15.8m) * (24.5m) * (4.2m)

             A = 1,625.82 m³

Help please posted picture of question

The given equation is:

y = -10x + 1
Slope of this equation = -10

New line will be perpendicular to this line, so slope of new line = 1/10

So, we are to find the equation of a line with slope 1/10 and passing through (5,7). Using the point slope form we can write

y - 7 = 1/10 ( x - 5)
y = x/10 -1/2 + 7 
y = x/10 + 13/2
⇒
x/10 - y = -13/2

So option C gives the correct equation of the new line
