Answer: 6
Step by step:
W is width, l is length, p is perimeter
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w+2l.
l=3w+9
2l=6w+18
2l+2w=8w+18
P=8w+18
66=8w+18
48=8w
W=6

What is the constant of proportionality for the relationship shown in the table? x 2 4 6 8 y 1 2 3 4
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

k = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x 2 4 6 8

y 1 2 3 4

Required

Determine the constant of proportionality (k)

The relationship between x and y is:

y = kx

When y = 1, x = 2;

So, we have:

1 = k * 2

2 * k = 1

Make k the subject

k = \frac{1}{2}

Hence, the constant of proportionality is 1/2

36 less than three times a number is equal to the number. What is the number?
ankoles [38]

We know that 36 less than three times a number is equal to the number. This statement can be represented by the following equation:

x = 3*x - 36

Solving the above equation:

⇒ 36 = 2*x

⇒ x = 18

Hence, the number is 18
