The length of a rectangle is 6 m longer than its width.

Mathematics
1 answer:
sweet [91]3 years ago

Answer:

55m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is l x w (width x height)

We know that the length (l) of the rectangle is 6m longer than its width (w), then:

(1) l = w + 6

We also know that the perimeter of the rectangle is 32m, so:

(2) 2l + 2w = 32

Now substitute the value of l in (1) for l in (2):

2(w + 6) + 2w = 32

Distribute:

2w + 12 + 2w = 32

Combine like terms and subtract 12 from both sides:

4w = 20

Divide both sides by 4:

w = 20/4 = 5 (so the width is 5m)

Find the length (use (1)):

l = 5 + 6 = 11m (length of rectangle)

Then, the area is:

A = l x w = 5 x 11 = 55m^2

Which of the following is a true statement about the equation y= -7/8x+10
-BARSIC- [3]
First of all we can rule out that the slope is 10. The coefficient before the x term is not 10 so the answer is not a.

Following on what I said for option a, option b is correct as the coefficient before the x term is -7/8. Therefore the answer is B.

The answer is not C as when x = 0, y is not 0. This means the line does not pass through the origin (0,0)

Option D is not true aswell. When x = 1, y= 9.125. When x= 2, y= 8.25. When x=3, y= 7.375. X is increasing whereas y is decreasing. Therefore option D is ruled out.

The answer is option B.

I hope this has helped you.

Please mark as brainliest if you are happy with this explanation. Have a great day!

Find x and y plz help :(
liraira [26]

Answer:

D. x = 5.4, y = 6.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar as per problem description, so the ratios match:

y/5 = 4/3

x/3 = 9/5

let's solve:

y/5 = 4/3

3y/5 = 4

3y = 20

y = 6.(6)

x/3 = 9/5

5x/3 = 9

5x = 27

x = 5.4

Three points are colinear.<br> always<br> sometimes <br> never
Novosadov [1.4K]
Three or more points are collinear, if slope of any two pairs of points is same. With three points A, B and C, three pairs of points can be formed, they are: AB, BC and AC. If Slope of AB = slope of BC = slope of AC, then A, B and C are collinear points
