The length is 2 feet longer than the width. The perimeter is 36 feet, what is the length?

Mathematics

SOVA2 [1]3 years ago

Answer:

The length would be 10ft and the width would be 8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose of this, we'll set the width as x. We can then define the length as x + 2 since we know it is 2 ft longer than the width. Now we can use those along with the perimeter formula to solve for the width.

P = 2l + 2w

36 = 2(x + 2) + 2(x)

36 = 2x + 4 + 2x

36 = 4x + 4

32 = 4x

8 = x

Now since we know that the width is 8ft, we can add 2ft to it to get the length, which would be 10ft.

line segment eg is partitioned by point f in the ratio 1:1. point e is at e (0, 4), and point f is at (1, 3). what are the coord
damaskus [11]

The coordinates of G (x₂ , y₂) for line segment EG = (2,2).

As given:

Line segment EG

Partitioned point of line segment is F

Coordinates of F (x ,y)=(1,3) and E (x₁ ,y₁)=(0,4)

Let coordinate of G (x₂ , y₂)

Ratio m:n =1:1

(x ,y) ={ ( mx₂ +nx₁ )/ (m +n) , ( my₂ +n y₁ )/ (m +n)

⇒(1,3) = {(1x₂ +1(0) )/2 , 1y₂ +1(4) /2}

⇒x₂ =2, y₂ =2

Therefore, the coordinates of G (x₂ , y₂) for the given line segment is equal to (2,2).
