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!!!

A rectangle has an area of 0.24 of a square. What are some possibility for the length and width of the rectangle? Tell why
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The possibilities of length and width of the rectangle are </h3><h3>x=1, y=0.24;</h3><h3>x=0.5, y=0.48;</h3><h3>x=0.25, y=0.96;</h3><h3>x=2, y=0.12</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area is 0.24 square meter

The area of a rectangle is given by

Area=length\times width square units

Let x be the length and y be the width.

Since the area is 0.24 square meter, we have the equation:

Area=x\times y = 0.24, with x and y measures in meters

If we want to know some possibilities of x and y, we can assume a value for one of them, and then calculate the other one using the equation.

Now choosing some values for "x", we have:

Put x = 1

1\times y = 0.24

∴ y = 0.24

Now put x = 0.5 we get

0.5\times y = 0.24

∴ y = 0.48

Put  x = 0.25

0.25\times y = 0.24

∴ y = 0.96

Put x = 2

2\times y = 0.24

∴ y = 0.12
