Suppose that the perimeter a rectangle is 54 feet, and the length is 13 feet more than the width. Find the width ractangle, in f

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:7feet

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter(p)=54ft

Width(w) +13=Length(L)

Perimeter=2xLength+2xwidth

P=2xL+2xw

L=w+13

54=2(w+13)+2w

54=2w+26+2w

Collect like terms

54-26=2w+2w

28=4w

Divide both sides by 4

28/4=4w/4

7=w

Width =7feet

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let (x,y) be the unkno

spin [16.1K]

The other endpoint is (1, -17).

The midpoint formula is:

$m=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
$(6, -11) = (\frac{11+x_2}{2}, \frac{-5+y_2}{2})
\\
\\6=\frac{11+x_2}{2} \text{ and } -11=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}
$

For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
$6\times2=\frac{11+x_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\12=11+x_2$

Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂

For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
$-11\times2=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\-22=-5+y_2$

Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂

This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first setup an equation by doing the following:

$4(2-x) = 3(x+1)\\8-4x=3x+3\\8-7x=3\\-7x=3-8\\-7x=-5\\x=-5/-7 (5/7)$
