The perimeter of a rectangle is 128 cm, and the ratio of its sides is 5: 3. Find the area of ​​a rectangle

Mathematics

Answer:

Area = 960 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter (P) = 2 (l + w)

P = 2l + 2w

Let the length be 5x

Let the width be 3x

From the question, P = 128.

Therefore:

128 = 2l + 2w

Divide both sides by 2.

l + w = 64

Recall we said:

l = 5x

w = 3x

So then:

5x + 3x = 64

8x = 64

Divide both sides by 8

x = 64/8

x = 8.

Since x = 8

Length = 5x = 5*8 = 40cm

Width =3x = 3 * 8 = 24cm

Area of a RECTANGLE:

Area = length * width

Area = 40 * 24

Area = 960 cm^2

PLS HELPPPP equation of the line that is parallel to the line y − 3x = 4 and passes through the point (0, −3)
Volgvan

Answer:

y = 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

y - 3x = 4 ( add 3x to both sides )

y = 3x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 3x + c

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3 ) ⇒ c = - 3

y = 3x - 3 ← equation in slope- intercept form
