Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

width = w

length = 12 + w

 

Perimeter of rectangle = 2*length + 2*width since perimeter measures the distance around an object.

 

The perimeter of a certain rectangle is 16 times the width means 2 * (12 + w) + 2 *w = 16w

24 + 2w + 2w = 16w

24 + 4w = 16w  subtract 4w from both sides

24 = 12 w  divide both sides by 12

2 = w

 

width = 2 cm

length = 12 + 2 = 14 cm

Solve ( x + 4 ) / 2 = ( x - 3 ) / 3
Sphinxa [80]
Simplify x - 3/3 to -1 + x/3

regroup terms

multiply both sides by 6 (The LCM of 2,3)

expand

subtract 2x from both sides

simplify 3x + 12 - 2x to x + 12

subtract 12 from both sides

simplify -6 - 12 to -18

Answer: x = -18.

What is the quadratic equation of least degree with zeros at 21 and -24
atroni [7]

Answer:

x^2 +3x -504

Step-by-step explanation:

Sort of do what you'd do to solve but in reverse.  You need 21 for a zero, so the binomial factor would be (x-21) since if you set that  = to zero you'd get 21.  Same for -24.  The binomial factor would be (x+24) since that would give you -24. Now that you have the two binomials, you can just multiply them and get the quadratic. :)

What is the equation of the graphed line in standard form? −2x+y=6 y = 2x + 6 12x+y=6 12x−y=−6 A line graphed on a Coordinate pl
malfutka [58]

Answer:

(0, 6), (2, 7)

y = mx + b

m = (7 - 6)/(2 - 0) = 1/2 = 0.5

b = 6

y = 1/2*x + 6

1/2*x - y = -6

So, answer D is correct. But m is the fraction 1/2 and not 12.
