For perimeter you add all of the sides but for area you multiply each side
Answer:
sorry I don't speak that language
To find the length of the wire, use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
18^2 + 40^2 = c ^2
324 + 1600 = c^2
1924 = c^2
44 = c
The wire is approximately 44 feet.
Answer:
y=mx+b is the formula. So -8=-3x+5 would be the answer..
since (x,y) just substitute these numbers you have it into the formulas... Take y from (5,-8) and place it into y=mx+b. Next take the slope which is -3. And then since its a postive number we <em>add</em> are x from (x,y). -8=-3x+5. We also add x next to the slope (-3) becuase we are trying to solve for x. And we <em>always</em> put it next to the slope. Hope this helps!
