If the area is 168& the length is 2 feet more so length is 14& width is 12 (14*12= 168), the rug is 8feet in total less from all sides so it gives an area on 160. To come out with length& width knowing the length should be less than 14, so it could be either (10*16, 8*20)

Option D. B

When a point is reflected across the x-axis, (x, y) becomes (-x, y)

Because A (2, 4) and B (-2, 4) are like (x, y) and (-x, y), we know that Option D is the answer.

When 7 is subtracted from five times a number, the result is greater than twice the sum of the number and 4. Find all the number
hichkok12 [17]

Given :

When 7 is subtracted from five times a number, the result is greater than twice the sum of the number and 4.

To Find :

All the numbers that satisfy the inequality.

Solution :

Let , the number is x .

Mathematical expression for first term is :

5x - 7

Mathematical expression for second term is :

2(x + 4)

Now , comparing both the expression by given constrain.

5x - 7 > 2(x + 4)\\\\5x-7>2x+8\\\\3x>15\\\\x>5

So, all the numbers that satisfy the inequality are greater than 5.

Hence , this is the required solution.

Consider the point P = (3,8) and the line L, given by the equation y = 3x -4.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

A parallel y = 3x-1

B perpendicular y = -1/3x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x-4 is written in slope intercept form  (y=mx+b) so the slope is 3.

A.  If the lines are parallel they have the same slope

m parallel is 3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-8 = 3(x-3)

Distribute

y-8 = 3x-9

Add 8 to each side

y-8+8 = 3x-9+8

y = 3x-1

This is slope intercept form

B If we want perpendicular lines, the slope is the negative reciprocal

m perpendicular is -(1/3)  = -1/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-8 = -1/3(x-3)

Distribute

y-8 = -1/3x+1

Add 8 to each side

y-8+8 = -1/3x+1+8

y = -1/3x+9

This is slope intercept form
