Let the length be x and the width be x - 3
Perimeter = 2(length + width) = 2(x + x - 3) = 54
2x + 2(x - 3) = 54

shtirl [24]

Answer:

(3 7/8, 2 3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, the formula is (x1-x2)/2 and (y1-y2)/2. So, in this case, our x1 is 4 1/2 and our x2 is -3 1/4. Subtract x2 from x1 and you will get 7 3/4. Then, divide by 2 to get 3 7/8. This is our x-coordinate.

Our y1 is 3 3/4 and our y2 is -1 3/4. Subtract y2 from y1 to get 5 1/2. Then divide by two to get 2 3/4. This is our y-coordinate.

Now we have our x and y coordinates.

igomit [66]

Answer:

4 to the -2 power divided by 4 to the 4th power

\frac{ {4}^{ - 2} }{ {4}^{4} }  =  \frac{1}{( {4}^{2} \times  {4}^{4} ) }  =  \frac{1}{ {4}^{(2 + 4)} }  =  \frac{1}{ {4}^{6} }  =  \frac{1}{4096}\\

A rectangle’s length is 6 more than 4 times its width. If the perimeter is 42, how long is the rectangle
Ainat [17]

The Length of the rectangle is 18 unit.

<h3>What is the Perimeter of a Rectangle?</h3>

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)

Given the following:

Let x represent the width of the rectangle

Width of the rectangle = x

Length of the rectangle = 4x + 6

Perimeter of rectangle = 42 units

Therefore, we would write the following equation to find x based on the formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle:

2(4x + 6 + x) = 42

2(5x + 6) = 42

10x + 12 = 42

10x = 42 - 12

10x = 30

10x/10 = 30/10

x = 3

The width (x) = 3.

Length of the rectangle = 4(3) + 6

Length of the rectangle = 18 unit.
