Answer:

Width is 10ft and length is 6ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a shape is the amount inside a shape. It is found using multiplication or A = l*w. Since the width is w and the length is 4ft less than its width or w - 4, use these expressions in the area formula to find their amount.

A = l*w\\60 = w(w -4)\\60 = w^2-4w

Subtract 60 from both sides and factor the quadratic to solve for w.

w^2 -4w - 60 = 0\\(w-10)(w+6) = 0

Set each factor equal to 0 and solve.

w - 10 = 0 so w = 10

w + 6 = 0 so w = -6.

Since w represents a length or distance it cannot be negative, this means the width is 10. The length which is w - 4ft is 10 -4 = 6. The length is 6 ft.

Answer:

180 degrees per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph that shows the distance covered by a tire or angular velocity of a tire with respect to the number of seconds (x).

Since we know that a tire is a circle and the measure of all the angles of a circle equals to 360 degrees.

We can see from our given graph that the tire completes one rotation in 2 seconds (2.5-0.5), so the distance covered by tire in two seconds will be 360 degrees. This means that the tire turns 360 degrees in each 2 seconds.

\text{Degrees turned by tire in 2 seconds}=\frac{360^o}{2\text{ seconds}}

As we are asked to find the degree change by tire per second so we will find the unit rate such that we will have 1 in our denominator. By dividing our numerator and denominator by 2 we will get,

\text{Degrees turned by tire in every second}=\frac{180^o}{\text{ second}}

Therefore, the tire is turning 180 degrees per second.

Determine the equation of a line passing through the point (2,-6), with a slope of m=-1
adoni [48]

Answer:

y = -x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

a line with a slope of -1, passing through the point (2,-6)

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

<u>where:</u>

(x₁, y₁) is the given point

m is the slope

Substitute the given values into the formula:

⇒ y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

⇒ y - (-6) = -1(x - 2)

⇒ y + 6 = -1(x - 2) [distribute -1 through the parentheses]

⇒ y + 6 = -x + 2 [subtract 6 from both sides]

⇒ y + 6 - 6 = -x + 2 - 6

⇒ y = -x - 4

Check your work:

⇒ y = -x - 4 [substitute 2 for x, and -6 for y]

⇒ -6 = -2 - 4 [simplify]

⇒ -6 = -6 ✔

Therefore, the equation of the line is: y = -x - 4
