Answer:
(-1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x ______(1)
7x - 8y = -23 ________(2)
Substituting the value of y in eqn.(1) into eqn (2);
7x - 8(-2x) = -23
7x + 16x = -23
23x = -23
x = -1
y = -2(-1) = 2.
M=-1/2 because you do y1-y2 over x1-x2 and end up with 2/-4 but simplified is -1/2
Answer:
width = 2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length of a rectangle is (x) units, then that means that the width of a rectangle is x - 4 units.
the area of a rectangle is length * width
so just substitute the values that we have now.
x (length) * (x-4) width = 12 (area of rectangle)
so that gives us
x^2 - 4x =12
subtract 12 from both sides
x^2 - 4x - 12 =0
now factor this equation
x^2 + 2x - 6x -12 = 0
x(x+2) - 6(x+2) = 0
(x-6)(x+2) = 0
x = 6, or x = -2 REMEMBER THAT VALUE OF x = LENGTH, IT CANNOT BE NEGATIVE AS YOU CANT HAVE NEGATIVE VALUE OF A SIDE
length = 6, and width = 6 -4 = 2
