Let

x--------> the border’s length

y--------> the border’s width

P--------> perimeter of the border


we know that

x=5+y------> equation 1

P=2*[x+y]-----> P=2x+2y

P <=180 ft

(2x+2y) <= 180-------> equation 2


substitute the equation 1 in equation 2

2*[5+y]+2y <= 180

10+2y+2y <= 180

4y <= 180-10

4y <=170

y <=42.5 ft

so

the maximum value of the width is 42.5 ft

for y=42.5 ft

x=42.5+5------> x=47.5 ft


the answer is

the width of the border is less than or equal to 42.5 ft

What is the slope of<br> the line parallel to 3x +<br> y = 12?
Doss [256]

Answer:

slope = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Rearrange eqn into slope intercept form

slope intercept form: y = mx + b

where...

m = the slope

b = the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y axis)

3x + y = 12

y = -3x+12

2) Know parallel rule. A line that runs parallel has the same slope but a different y-intercept

So the slope is: -3
