Length(l)= 4+ w
Width(w)=w
Area(A)= 21m^2

so keep in mind Area= Length × width

A= l×w
21=(4+w)(w)
21= 4w+ 2w
21=6w
w=3.5

The width is 3.5m

so the answer is about 4m

Hernando and Rachel are factoring 2mp-6p+27-9m. Is either of them correct? Explain your reasoning,

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as Hernando and Rachel's solution are not provided. So, I will just solve the question directly.

Given

$2mp-6p+27-9m$

Required

Factor

$2mp-6p+27-9m$

Group into 2

$2mp-6p+27-9m = [2mp-6p]+[27-9m]$

Factor each group

$2mp-6p+27-9m = 2p[m-3]+9[3-m]$

Rewrite 3 - m as -(m-3)

So, we have:

$2mp-6p+27-9m = 2p[m-3]-9[m-3]$

Factor out m - 3

$2mp-6p+27-9m = [2p-9][m-3]$

Answer:

3) y = -1

5) x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to recognize that the equation describes a vertical line in problem 3 and a horizontal line in problem 5. The perpendicular to a vertical line is a horizontal line, and vice versa.

3. To make the desired horizontal line go through the point (-8, -1) the y-value of the line must match that of the point:

y = -1

5. To make the desired vertical line go through the point (-14, 81), the x-value of the line must match that of the point:

x = -14
