Answer:

Option D (7).

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for gradient of the straight line is given by:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1); where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two fixed points on the straight line. It is given that (x1, y1) = (4, r) and (x2, y2) = (r, 2). The gradient of the straight line is given by -5/3. To find the value of r, simply substitute all the values in the gradient equation. Therefore:

-5/3 = (2 - r)/(r - 4).

Cross Multiplying:

-5*(r - 4) = 3*(2 - r).

-5r + 20 = 6 - 3r.

-2r = -14.

r = 7.

Therefore, Option D is the correct answer!!!

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

<h2> The answer is </h2><h2> D. 8x^2+4xy</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the expression for the perimeter is given as

P=2l+2B

now given that the value of the width is =2x

length= 4x

and the breadth=y

P=4x+2y

let us multiply both the length and the width with 2x we have

P=2x(4x+2y)

P=8x^2+4xy

the answer is

D. 8x^2+4xy

What is the value of x?

Alisiya [41]

Simplify the first numerator first
-2(x+1)
-2x-2

Then you can set up an equation using cross multiplication
5(-2x-2)= 3x

Simplify and solve
-10x-10=3x
-10=13x
-10/13=x

Final answer: x=-10/13
