Makayla is taking a math course and is working with the perimeter of rectangles. She knows the perimeter and length of her recta

ngle but wants to solve for the width. Rearrange the following equation for W, where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width of the rectangle.
P = 2L + 2W

W = 2P − 2L
W = P/ 2-2 times L
W equals the quantity P minus 2 times L all over 2
W = 2P + 2L

Answer:

Third option: W=\frac{P-2L}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that the equation used to calculate that perimeter of the rectangle is:

P = 2L + 2W

Where "P" is the perimeter, "L" is the leght and "W" is the width, Makayla can follow these steps in order to solve for "W":

- Subtract 2L from both sides of the equation:

P -2L= 2L + 2W-2L\\\\P-2L=2W

- Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

\frac{P-2L}{2}=\frac{2W}{2}\\\\W=\frac{P-2L}{2}

\bf P=2L+2W\implies P-2L=2W\implies \cfrac{P-2L}{2}=W

Graph the circle x2 + y2 + 10x + 6y + 18 = 0.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

  see below for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Completing the square for x and y terms can help you put this in the standard form.

  (x^2 +10x) +(y^2 +6y) = -18

  (x^2 +10x +25) +(y^2 +6x +9) = -18 +25 +9 . . . . add square of half linear coefficient

  (x +5)^2 +(y +3)^2 = 16 . . . . . . . circle centered at (-5, -3) with radius 4
