Answer:

the length is 8ft

the width is 3ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

perimter= 22ft

let the length be x

width = x-5

Step two

the expression for the perimeter of a rectangle is

P=2L+2W

substituting our data

22= 2(x)+2(x-5)

open brackets

22=2x+2x-10

collect terms and solve for x

22+10=4x

32=4x

divide both sides by 4

x= 32/4

x= 8ft

the length is 8ft

the width = x-5= 8-5= 3ft

Explain how you can find the constant of proportionality from a graph representing a proportional relationship when it shows a p
Korvikt [17]

For a proportional relationship, the constant is found dividing all values of y by each respective value of x.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

The constant can be represented as follows:

k = \frac{y}{x}

Hence the constant is found dividing all values of y by each respective value of x.
