Step one:

given data

A marathon is 131\5 miles long (note the format of the length of the marathon 1315 miles)

We are required to divide the length of the marathon by 4

=1315/4

=328.75 miles

The formula for the perimeter, P, of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2w, where L is the length and W is th width sovle the formula for t

vichka [17]

P = 2L + 2w

Subtract 2L
from each side: P - 2L = 2w

Divide each side
by 2 : (P - 2L) / 2 = w

You could also write it as (P/2 - L) = w
Both answers are the same.

What is the best name for the figure with vertices at the following coordinates? (0,0), (-1, 1), (6, 1), and (2, 0)

algol [13]

We are given with the following vertices:
A (0,0)
B (-1,1)
C(6,1)
D (2.0)

Next is to plot the vertices in the Cartesian plane so that we can identify the figure. See attached image.

The identified shape is a "Parallelogram".

Write the equation of the line that passes through (–2, 1) and is perpendicular to the line 3x – 2y = 5.

amid [387]

-2y=-3x+5
$y=\frac{3}{2}x + \frac{5}2$
$y=\frac{-2}{3}x + b$
$1=\frac{-2}{3}(-2) + b$
$1=\frac{4}{3} + b$
$\frac{1}{3} = b$
$y=\frac{-2}{3}x + \frac{1}{3}$
