Answer:

<h3>The length is 44 feet</h3><h3>The width is 20 feet</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

Perimeter = 128 feet

The width is 24 feet less than the length is written as

w = l - 24

128 = 2l + 2( l - 24)

128 = 2l + 2l - 48

Group like terms

4l = 176

Divide both sides by 4

l = 44

The length is 44 feet

Substitute l = 44 into w = l - 24

w = 44 - 24

w = 20

The width is 20 feet

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 red

15 black

10 white

altogether the is 30 marbles so that means it is 'out of' 30

and because the is 5 red it would be 5/30

and because the is 10 white it would be 10/30

that should be the answer but if you have to work the total all together then it would be 15/30

hope this helps :)

AB has coordinates A(-5,9) and B(7,- 7). Points P, Q, and I are collinear

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$\overline{QT}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the coordinates of a certain point C(x,y) such that C divides $A(x_1,y_1)$ and $B(x_2,y_2)$ in the ratio m:n=3:2

The x-coordinate is given by:

$x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}$

The y-coordinate is given by:

$y=\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}$

AB has coordinates A(-5,9) and B(7,- 7)

We substitute the values to get:

$x=\frac{3*7+2*-5}{3+2}$

$x=\frac{21-10}{5}$

$x=\frac{11}{5}$

and

$y=\frac{3*-7+2*9}{3+2}$

$y=\frac{-21+18}{5}$

$y=-\frac{3}{5}$

Therefore C has coordinates $(\frac{11}{5},-\frac{3}{5})$

The line segment that contains C is $\overline{QT}$
