Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter=2(l+b)
18=2[(x+2)+x]
18=2(x+x+2)
18=2(2x+2)
18=4x+4
collecting like terms
18+4=4x
22=4x
dividing by 4
22/4=x
5²/4=5½
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The leftmost line segment has a slope of -2 and (-1,-1) is a point on the line.
Equation: y = -2x-3
middle line segment has a slope of 0 and y-intercept of -2.
Equation: y = -2
The rightmost line segment has a slope of 1.5. (5,0) is a point on the line.
y = 1.5(x-5) = 1.5x-7.5
Since it turns downwards (the shape on an "n", it is a maximum point)
Maximum point occurs at (-2, 1)
Answer: (B) (-2, 1) maximum
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find an expression that has a value of

First option:

Second option:

Correct option
Third option

Fourth option:

Answer:
B. (-2,-4)
Explanation
Given equations:
y = 3x + 2
y = -2x - 8
Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;
Solution:
y = 3x + 2 ----- (i)
y = -2x - 8 ------ (ii)
Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii
3x + 2 = -2x - 8
Collect like terms and solve;
3x + 2x = -8 -2
5x = -10
x = -2
Then put x = -2 into i, to find y
y = (-2 x 3) + 2
y = -6 + 2 = -4
So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)
