a flat rectangular piece of aluminum has a perimeter of 64 inches. the length is 10 inches longer than the width. find the width
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The width of the piece is 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of the rectangular piece of aluminum in inches

y ----> the width of the rectangular piece of aluminum in inches

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangular piece of aluminum is equal to

P=2(x+y)

we have

P=64\ in

so

64=2(x+y)

simplify

32=x+y ----> equation A

x=y+10 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

32=y+10+y

solve for y

32=2y+10

2y=32-10

2y=22

y=11

therefore

The width of the piece is 11 inches

What is the equation of the trend line?k+j
Kaylis [27]
Answer: The equation of the trend line is y = -2x + 24.

First, we need to find the slope. The slope is the change in y over the change in x between the points. Our points move down 4 units while moving right 2 units. So our slope would be -4/2 or just -2.

Second, we need to find the y-intercept. We are lucky because the y-intercept can be see clearly in the graph. It is (0, 24).

We can put the slope and y-intercept together to get the equation:
y = -2x + 24.
