Answer: Choice B) 17.5 feet

A = Area of rectangle

L = length

W = width

The formula to use is A = L*W, so we multiply length and width.

We know W = 7 but we don't know what L is.

We know that A = 122.5 is also given

So let's solve for L

A = L*W

L*W = A

L*7 = 122.5     plug in the given values

7*L = 122.5

7*L/7 = 122.5/7     divide both sides by 7

L = 17.5

He should cut 17.5 feet of streamer. Keep in mind that this only applies if Adrian wants to make the streamer completely taut and a straight line across the ceiling/wall. If he wants the streamer to hang down a bit (forming a shape like a rope bridge in a sense), then the streamer's length will have to be a bit longer to account for the extra distance along the curve.

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through point (-3,-1)?
Fantom [35]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Point Slope Form:

  • y - Y1 = m (x - X1)
  • m is the slope
  • Y1 & X1 is a point on the line
  • The form allows you to identify the slope & the point on the line

About Problem:

  • Since -2/3 is the slope, it represents m in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form.
  • -3 represents X1 in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form
  • -1 represents Y1  in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form

y - Y1 = m (x - X1)

y - -1 = -2/3 (x - -3)  ---- This is in Point Slope Form

If you want to solve it, & put it in Slope Intercept form, it would look like this:

y = mx + b

y = -2/3 - 2 --- This is in Slope intercept Form.... I might've solved it wrong... I'm not sure...


Really really sorry if I'm incorrect...
