The formula for perimeter is 2l+2w. Since we know l=(w-4)-9, we can substitute this into the formula.

l=w-13

2(w-13)+2w=143

2w-26+2w=143

4w=169

w=42.25 units

Hope this helps!

ABC has the points A(1,7) B(-2,2) and C(4,2) as it’s vertices

tekilochka [14]

Part 1

Using the distance formula,

$AB=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(2-7)^{2}}=\sqrt{34}\\\\BC=\sqrt{(-2-4)^{2}+(2-2)^{2}}=6\\\\AC=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}=\sqrt{34}$

So, the measure of the longest side is 6 units.

Part 2

Triangle ABD will have vertices A(1,7), B(-2, 2), and D(1,2).

We already know that $AB=\sqrt{34}$

Using the distance formula,

$AD=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}=5\\\\BD=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(2-2)^{2}}=3$

So, ABD is a scalene triangle.

Part 3

From part 2, we know that the length of side AD is 5 units.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the real world amortization mortgage loans have equal monthly installments paid for the life of the loan.

The monthly installments are found by

$I=P\left(\frac{r-1}{r^n-1}+(r-1)\right)\\ \\ r=1+(r/12),\ n=12(30)=360\\ \\ I=550000\left(\frac{.00167}{1.00167^{360}-1}+.00167\right)\\ \\ I=\$ 2032.91\\ \\ \text{If we subtract the total paid over thirty years minus the principal we get the total interest paid.}\\ \\ 360(2032.91)-550000=$181846.56$

Evaluate 1x^3 –2x^2 – 4x- 6 at x = 4

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1x^3-2x^2-4x-6

x^3-2x^2-4x-6

(4)^3-2(4)^2-4(4)-6

64-2(16)-16-6

64-32-16-6

32-16-6

16-6

So when x=4, the output will be 10
