The perimeter of a rectangle is 

P = 2w +2l
P = 68 ft

and given the ratio l/w = 9/8 from this result 8l = 9w so l = (9w)/8

P = 2w +2l

68 = 2w +2((9w)/8)

68 = 2w +9w/4

4*68 = 8w +9w

272 = 17w

w = 272/17

w = 16 

so than we know that w=16 so than the length will be 

l = (9w)/8

l = 9*16/8

l = 9*2

l = 18

so than we know that 

l = 18
w = 16

Find the value of x by using law of sines.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

x = 7.7

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{a}{Sin~A} &=& \frac{b}{Sin~b} \\ \frac{8}{Sin~73^\circ} &=& \frac{x}{Sin~67^\circ} \\ \frac{8}{0.96} &=& \frac{x}{0.92} \\ 0.96x &=& 8 \times 0.92 \\ 96x &=& 8 \times 92 \\ 96x &=& 736 \\ x &=& \frac{736}{96} \\ x&=& \frac{23}{3} \\ &\boxed{x=7.7}&

∴ value of x is 7.7

PLEASSSSSEEE HELP A GIRL OUT PLZZ​

Answer:

B. The two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put both lines into the same format. In this example, we're going to use y=mx+b format.

x - 4y = -9

-4y = -x + -9

y = (-x + -9) / -4

y = (x+9)/-4

y = (-1/4)x + (-9/4)

y = 3x - 7

If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. (ie 4 and 4)

If two lines are perpendicular, one line's slope is the negative reciprocal of the other. (ie 4 and -1/4)

Neither is true here.
