The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:
P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>
64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property
⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms
⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides
⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4
⇒ x = 12
Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width
<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14
<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18
The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>
Take the 2/5 and multiple it by 3 to get 6/15....then take the 1/3 and multiple it by 5 to get 5/15. Then add this together (6/15+5/15=....) to get 11/15
We simply need to subtract 1,222 from 2,345. Once we do that we get 1,223. Hope that helps! :)
Answer:
y = (2/7)x -12
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b is the standard form of an equation of a straight line in which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is zero)..
<u>m</u>=(2/7) and <u>b</u> = -12
y = <u>m</u>x + <u>b</u>
y = (<u>2/7</u>)x <u>-12</u>
