Answer:

y=-3/2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = -4

2y=-4-3x /:2

y=-4/2-3x/2

y=-3/2x-2

Slope=-3/2(=m) , because this line is parallel slope is the same, then

y-y1=m(x-x1) ,where

A(4,-1).... x1 =4, y1 =-1

y-(-1)=-3/2(x-4)

y+1=-3/2x+3/2*4

y+1=-3/2x+6

y=-3/2x+6-1

y=-3/2x+5

If P = 2l + 2w, the formula to find w is . If P is 30 units and l is 10 units, w is units.

Helen [10]

Answer:

If P is 30 units and l is 10 units, w is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's check the information given to resolve the question:

P = 2l + 2w

If P is 30 units and l is 10 units, w is units

2. Replacing with the values:

P = 2l + 2w

30 = 2 (10) + 2w

30 = 20 + 2w

-2w = 20 -30 (Subtracting 2w and - 30 to both sides)

-2w = - 10

2w = 10 (Multiplying by - 1 at both sides)

w = 5 (Dividing by 2 at both sides)

If P is 30 units and l is 10 units, w is 5 units
