Answer:

Here

Step-by-step explanation:

length = x

width = 2x - 3

 

Perimeter = 2length + 2 width

2x + 2(2x - 3) = 42

2x + 4x - 6 =42

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide both sides by 6

x = 8

 

Length = 8 inches

Width = 2(8) - 3 = 16-3 = 13 inches

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

$75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will find how many hours he worked. 8:00-12:00 is 4 hours, and 12:00-2:00 is 2 hours, so he worked a total of 6 hours.

Next, we have to multiply the hours worked by his hourly wage.

12.50*6=75

98 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR BEST ANSWER!!!!
Phoenix [80]

A) We are told that at 2 hours, the velocity is 18 km/h and at 4 hours, the velocity is 4 km/h. Since we are relating two variables - let's give them names.

Let x = time and y = velocity. Since the velocity depends on the time (that is, the time influences velocity), this is a linear function. Any linear function can be written in slope intercept form as y = mx + b. The problem wants the situation in standard from of Ax + By = C, which can be found from slope intercept form.

So now we can make our line. Consider the ordered pairs of (2,18) and (4, 4) with them in (x, y) form. Finding the slope, m, between these points is as such:

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

m = 4 - 18 / 4 - 2

m = -14 / 2 = -7.

Our slope is -7.

We take m = -7, x = 4, and y = 4 (it goes 4 km/h in 4 hrs) and use those three things to find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

4 = -7 * 4 + b

4 = -28 + b

32 = b

So our equation of the line is y = -7x + 32. To put the equation into standard form, we need to place all the variables on one side of the equals sign, all the numbers on the other.

y = -7x + 32

7x + y = 32

In standard form, the equation for this situation is 7x + y = 32

***

To find out the velocity at 8 hours, we evaluate our function at x = 8. Either equation (standard form or slope intercept) works; we use standard form.

7x + y = 32

7*8 + y = 32

56 + y = 32

y = -24

At a time of eight hours, the bicycle is moving at -24 km/h.
