We know, area = length * width
Here, A = 582.25 in²
w = 17 in

Substitute their values,
582.25 = l * 17
l = 582.25 / 17
l = 34.25 in

In short, Your Answer would be 34.25 inches

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle whose width in 17 inches and whose area is 582.25 in is 34.25 inch

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. Rectangle can also be defined as an equiangular quadrilateral, because equiangular means that all of its angles are equal. Rectangle can also be defined as a parallelogram containing a right angle.

To find the width of a rectangle, we can use the formula:

We can plug the area and length of the rectangle into the formula and solve for the width.

$area = length * width.$

If you don't have the area, you can use the rectangle's perimeter instead.

Area is measured in square units, such as square inches, square feet or square meters. To find the area of a rectangle, we can multiply the length by the width.

$A = L * W$

where where A is the area, L is the length, W is the width.

Therefore, the length of a rectangle is

$\frac{area }{width } = \frac{582.25 in}{17 inches} = 34.25 inches$

Allison plays basketball and last season she made a total of 87 shots (two- or three- point shots). Her points total was 191. Ho

yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 2 point shots be t.

Let the number of 3 point shots be h.

Allison made 87 shots and scored 191 total points. This implies two things:

t + h = 87 ________(1)

2t + 3h = 191 ______(2)

Let us eliminate t by multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2):

=> 2t + 3h = 191

- <u>2t + 2h = 174</u>

<u />

Therefore, she made 17 three point shots.

Write an equation for the line described in standard form with x-intercept 4 and y-intercept 5

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Equation $( \frac{5}{4}) x + y = 5$ is in the standard dorm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the x - intercept = 4 , so ( 4,0) is a point on the line.

and the y - intercept = 5, so ( 0,5) is a point on the line.

So, the slope of the equation is given as = $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1 } = \frac{5 -0}{0-4} = -\frac{5}{4}$

Now, the SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM of an equation is :

y = mx + b: here m = slope and b = y- intercept

or, $y =-( \frac{5}{4}) x + 5$

Now, standard form is Ax +By = C

So, the standard form is $( \frac{5}{4}) x + y = 5$

Hence, the above equation $( \frac{5}{4}) x + y = 5$

is in the standard dorm.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, 3) and (-3,-1)?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

y=1/2x+1/2

m=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(5,3) and (-3,-1).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (5,3), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=5 and y1=3.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (-3,-1), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=-3 and y2=-1.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

-1 - 3 over

-3 - 5

or...

-4 over

-8

or...

m=1/2

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=1/2x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(5,3). When x of the line is 5, y of the line must be 3.

(-3,-1). When x of the line is -3, y of the line must be -1.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=1/2x+b. b is what we want, the 1/2 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (5,3) and (-3,-1).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(5,3). y=mx+b or 3=1/2 × 5+b, or solving for b: b=3-(1/2)(5). b=1/2.

(-3,-1). y=mx+b or -1=1/2 × -3+b, or solving for b: b=-1-(1/2)(-3). b=1/2.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(5,3) and (-3,-1)

y=1/2x+1/2
