Answer:

length=25  width=17

Step-by-step explanation:

l+w=42

start by guessing a pair of numbers that equals 42 i chose 22+20

since these two numbers are 2 digits apart,

5-2=3

now we have to add 3 to 22 and subtract 3 from 20

now it is 25+17 which still equals 42

Step-by-step explanation:

your don't see what went wrong ?

Tyrell worked on

16 - 2(4 + 3x)

what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.

as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.

so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.

so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.

therefore, the correct simplification looks like

16 - 8 - 6x

8 - 6x or -6x + 8

Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up

10x - 3(4x + 1)

10x - 12x - 3

10x - 12x = -2x

I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.

so, the result is

-2x - 3

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to y = 3x + 7
Vikki [24]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line has the form y = mx + b where m is the slope. Here the slope is m = 3. A line perpendicular to it will have a negative reciprocal slope. The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3.
